Anyone that is a jogger or runner how did you start? Have you always loved running or jogging or is it new since surgery?

I don't mind walking but I have always wanted to jog. I just don't seem to be able to do it yet. I find that when I walk I can not seem to go fast enough to get a workout so I thought maybe jogging would be good.
I went out the other day and tried to walk for a while and then jog. I got about 20 feet before I didn't think I would do anymore. I did that about twice and felt stupid. I know walking first is key but I am a slow walker. I enjoy walking but even when I try walking fast eventually I just slow down.
I want to learn to jog because I think it is a good activity that I can do anywhere no equipement necessary.

I used to run in high school for softball but I hated it. I felt like I was no good at it.

Anyone willing to share how they got started?
