This is it! You’ve been learning about what to do for nine days. Think of this as graduation day, the day you get the last, but most critical, piece of the puzzle. Today, you find out exactly what you should do, and I mean you, personally, should do on Day 1 of your running journey. Today, is your diagnostic run.
In this podcast, I explain what to do to find out how far you should run during each running segment of your walk to run mile, which is the distance you should start with.
I also explain how to progress from there, the three variables, and the details regarding the decisions you’ll be making in deciding what to change and when.
I’m excited for you because this is, of all the secrets I’ve imparted, perhaps the most crucial one, because if you try to start your running training with too much running, you’ll likely never succeed.

Every runner will end up doing a walk run from time to time, for one reason or another, and there is nothing wrong with that. I do a walk/run for the first mile every time out.
