All great advice. Thanks everyone.
I think my main issue is with my heart rate. Even on the treadmill, I'll set it for say 1.5 mph and my heart rate literally jumps up to the 140's. That's like barely a brisk walk. So if anyone has any ideas on how to build up a tolerance towards running while at the same time not stressing out my heart rate, then I'm all ears.
Per doc's orders - I can exercise but she does not want me taking my HR past 150.
