keep in mind that overtraining (not the chronic overtraining syndrome, just doing a few days or week of hard exercise when you're out of shape) is going to be unpleasant and not a good experience. you need to gradually get into it, especially if you've been practicing being out of shape for years. and also pure long-distance aerobic isn't ideal for general health eitehr. some heavy weights, some sprints, some aerobic, not too much of any one, and only once one has a base of fitness. going too hard is pretty common for people starting out. but you can't make big changes all in the first week in the gym.
