Re: C25K question
I would start the speed at 5.0 or 5.1 You can increase it as you get more comfortable running. I wouldn't use any incline. Good luck!

Re: C25K question
I suggest starting at whatever pace feels comfortable/easy for you. Something you can maintain without feeling totally out of breath. You should be able to talk at least a little bit while you're running. I agree that somewhere between 5.0-5.5 would be a good starting point, and either no incline or 0.5 at the highest.
