(I go out for about an hour, spending about 20 minutes walking to warm up and 10 minutes walking to cool down. The program calls for about 30 minutes. Whatever works for you.)
Weeks 1-3: Walk 5 minutes to warm up, run up to 2 minutes, repeat.
Weeks 4-6; Warm-up time, then walk 3 minutes, run 3 minutes, repeat (or if that's too much, to soon, start with 90 second intervals and work up to 3 minutes.)
Weeks 7-9: Warm-up time then run 4-5 minutes, walk 1-2 minutes
Weeks 10-12: Warm-up time then Run 8-10 minutes, walk 1-2 minutes
Weeks 13 on: Warm-up time then run 30 minutes straight. If you can't do it at first, don't fret about it, do what you can, walking when you need to, with a goal in mind of 30 minutes of straight running.
