Overview

Running can take your fitness level up a notch or two. But for running rookies--even athletes successful in other sports--creating a training program can be daunting. Here's a 10-week beginner running program that takes the guesswork out of running. At the end of the 10 weeks, you should be able to run three miles.

Here's the best part. The only equipment needed is a pair of running shoes, some comfortable clothes, and a watch.
