To start training to run how long should I train with walking for?
I don’t have much running experience but when I do I can tell my body isn’t ready for marathon training. To pretrain how long should I do walking exercises for?
You can start off jogging and then when you have done enough walk a short distance then more jogging. keep this up till you can run 20 minutes continuously and then start to look at some programs. If you want to run a marathon then look at it as a 2 or 3 year project, and start with increasing mileage and running time and look for some shorter races.

Walking will not help you at all. Especially for a marathon. If walking helps, we will all be awesome runners. To get better, you have to go out and run. Try jogging to get your body use to it. As you start getting better, start running at a slow pace. Than slowly increase your speed or pace. That is how all runners start.
