literally get used to running so slow that it feels wrong. beginners tend to run too fast because they think that’s what is required to improve, but that could not be further from the truth! slow runs are the best way to build up aerobic fitness at the beginning. once your body gets used to running more often you can incorporate some faster runs or intervals, but for now just run at a pace that feels enjoyable even if it feels super slow. i also found running for time is more encouraging than for distance (i.e. set a timer for 20 minutes of running instead of x number of miles). run in nature or with friends, listen to your favourite playlist or podcast, and of course be patient. it takes time to start enjoying running but once you do you will never regret starting :)
