Just got into running, any tips?

I'm fairly fit but also starts slow with the couch to 5k program.

Perhaps any technique sharing with breathing, stride, gear, etc would be appreciated!

Perhaps I should ask in c/jogging 🤣

Part of my logic at that time was that I was really fat and running at my weight probably isn't the best for any part of my body. Also figured that if I can get jogging down, running properly should be much easier.

A sustained, slower pace for longer seemed like my best choice.
