Running is probably one of the hardest activities to start next to swimming... my team swims 3 times a week and that's it... (feeling a little burned out too)... BUT, I'd like to start running - and was wondering on if you guys have any tips.
I've googled it a bit and a lot of people say to start slow - walk a majority of the time and run in little spurts and build up from there.
Anyways, fellow swimmers - any other advice to give?

I don't currently run, but I've been told to start with 30 sec run/1 min walk and repeat ~10x, then gradually build to 1 min run/30 sec walk to 5 min run/30 sec walk, etc. until you can run continuously. The biggest things are start slowly and build gradually and make sure you have good shoes.
