Adding on to this-- setting up a schedule that you feel is something you can accomplish is also a big part of it, and being able to stick to it.

Running everyday is a good way for you to feel overwhelmed, if you're not a person who enjoys running, or is particularly good at running. Just tarting out, it's important to approach it in a way where you feel like you're making progress, but that the idea of future runs doesn't seem impossible.

At one point I was running 3 miles every day. No exceptions, no rest days, all that. It was stupid in retrospect, and sapped me physically and mentally, and was sort of demoralizing. I was exhausted, I felt like I could never get better times, and that it was pointless.

Don't do that. You have to keep running, but you don't have to push yourself until you feel like you're going to die.

I really like their 5k training app because of this. They make pace myself and I don't feel guilty for resting a day between runs because they tell me to do it.
