have you tried any of the couch to 5k or 10k apps? they are so helpful! they help you slowly build endurance. you'll go from struggling to run a minute to running 8 straight minutes in a few weeks. (they use intervals of walking and running to build you up). check it out.

as a maturing chemistry junky, this is a fabulous tool. thank you!
