First step is the hardest. Once it's routine, you kinda feel empty without it

I'm doing couch to 5k and just completed day 1 of week five which is walk 5min, run 5min (5 mph for me) then walk 3min, run 5min, walk 3min, run 5min, cooldown
I was able to do it today so I feel decent about it. Best part was the shower afterwards. Made my legs feel better some.

Nice. It should feel comfortable after a week or so...hopefully. Keep hydrated and such.

Unfortunately no water allowed in the gym. Would you recommend during my walk "breaks" that i grab a couple of sips?

Yeah...hydration is important for running. The worst thing is you getting some dehydration cramp during the middle of your run. It's a nasty setback. Weird that your gym doesn't allow water...most gyms I have been to allow it. Heck, they'll allow basically any drink.

The gym is run by the students so I am sure they are being extra careful

Clone drinks a fifth of vodka while he is on the treadmill.... he is hardcore

Ha...if you went to CRCE or ARC (or IMPE/WIMPE if you were of that generation of names) those were run by students too and you could bring whatever. Perhaps Moody (I assume that's where your gym is) operates a little differently.

The treadmill gives me the motivation not to stop my training. Going to be scary when I do the track.

The only place I can drink water in the gym is in the hallways
