Running

Beginners' running plans are a pile of shite meant for middle aged ladies with two Morris Minors down the back of their jogging bottoms. Get out and run until you drop, and do it more regularly than is comfortable.

And that nonsense about 'only increasing by 10% a week' can fuck off too. If it was down to these people trying to over-science everything, no-one would ever run the length of themselves.

+1 my wife has tried to get into running using these but has got bored before she got interested in running.

Find somewhere to run that sets a challenge, and will feel like an achievement when you get there and run there (I still do this on long runs, this weekend it was the top of the long mile in windsor), if you feel you need to walk then don't, if you still need to walk then slow down a bit.

Think the 10% does offer some benefit in terms of slowly increasing distance and volume, but is a guide rather than a rule, even with dodgy legs you're not going to break yourself that much by running a few kms
