Starting Couch to 5k...treadmill question

I am going to start the couch to 5k tomorrow. What do I put the treadmill on when I am running...what should I change it to for the walking part?

Thanks!

Re: Starting Couch to 5k...treadmill question

Go by how you feel. The speed you go at should depend on your comfort level. When first starting out, I suggest doing the running part at about 5.0-5.3 mph, and the walking at 3.3-3.5 mph. Also a slight incline, like 0.5 or 1.0, to simulate exercising outdoors.
