running newbie
Hopefully this community is actually open to this sort of post, if not let me know and I'll take it down.
I've decided to start up a running regiment, have my running shoes, and a great area to run in, a running partner with four legs, now all I have to do is actually...run.
I was wondering what you guys thought was the best way to start? I was thinking I would try the C25K program as many people seem to find success through it. Does anyone else have any suggestions? I am decently fit, 20 years old, female.
If anyone would be willing to share how they starting running to inspire me that would be greatly appreciated.

I actually started running as a way to get exercise and explore the new town I had moved to. At some point I started really enjoying it - now I've done 3 marathons and am running ~50 miles/week. (And have a 10-mile race tomorrow!)
I guess if I had to share the most important advice I could think of it would be: run slowly. Don't run as fast as you can except when you race or when you do speedwork (which a beginner shouldn't even be considering).
