I've done my research and i'm about to start running for the first time. I 've been doing hour-long to hour and a half long power walks for about a year and I'm ready to take on the transition to running.
I've read that a half hour mix of walking-running is the way to go, and that I should start off with a minute of running then 90 minutes of walking. Great, but how do you measure how long a minute has been? The website (runner's world) said to be fairly strict with the times. What do you do? Count down? I would have thought hat you'd be too busy concentrating on running than looking at a watch?
(I'm a complete newbie runner, any tips would be great). x
