If you’re capable of walking for 60-90 minutes, Couch to 5K is a good place to start. Otherwise losing weight and walking 6K+ steps a day 3+ times a week is a good place to start, just to get your feet prepared for the load that running will put on the body. I started with couch to 5K at the beginning of August and completed it in September. I just got to the point of being able to run 5 miles in one go and I’m now running 15 mpw. All it takes is being consistent and you will see rapid improvement.
