re: Tips for starting a running/jogging program

Main thing is to be consistent in whatever training/jogging program you choose to do, it is the only way you will see results.
I would suggest to start off on a treadmill. Pick a distance and run for completion, do this 3-4 times a week. Do this until you get comfortable with the distance you're running, then increase your distance and do the same. When you get comfortable, move to running on pavement.
Example:
Treadmill
1 mi. for completion (2 weeks, 3-4 times per week)
1.5 mi. for completion (2 weeks, 3-4 times per week)
2 mi for completion (2 weeks, 3-4 times per week)
Move to pavement
1.5 mi for completion (2 weeks, 3-4 times per week)
2 mi for completion (2 weeks, 3-4 times per week)
Be consistent, challenge yourself. Try to either run further or beat your time. Do this consistently and I have no doubt you will see results.
Don't start off with a distance you can't complete and don't make drastic increases when you increase how far you are going to run.
I started a running program similar to this a few months ago and can attest that I have seen results and have been told by others they can see the results too. It wasn't easy to get started but it has definitely been worth it. To whatever you choose to do good luck!
