Three days a week, I think, is perfect to start, but my advise is to be careful and two days in between, not that I follow my own advise! There are great running apps you can download if you want a regimented starting program (couch to 5k, couch to 10K types). I tried to follow Den's advice (a much faster and accomplished runner than I can be) and its worked well so far coming back from injuries (mostly foot/ankle, indoor soccer related.) Itching to really up the mileage back to pre injury days, but I. will. stay. patient.

Any suggestions for rehab/atrophy control once I'm no longer walking and biking on it?

My running has been ok, however my pushups/planks/ and all other type of activity have disappeared.
And my diet has been crap.
Fricking basketball season man. Every year I tell myself, "this year I'm not gonna let myself go, I'm gonna keep working out..." and I always end up with a couple of half assed months in which not much gets accomplished."...of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."

Made that same mistake, didn't give myself a proper break, and ended up in overtraining hell...what a mess that was to get out of. Took me over 6 months to get everything back right. Resting heart rate shot to the moon, running form went to shit....thank god that is all that happened.
This year, I'm going to take two weeks of enforced rest so my body can actually heal. I hate doing it, but remembering last year, I don't think I have a choice but to go into bon-bon mode for awhile.sigpic
