(I did read your other comment.)

Continue doing the walk / jog that you found "surprisingly enjoyable".

Continue doing jog instead of walk when that feels OK to you, and walk or stop whenever you feel like it.

Continue for a month.

Long enough to learn what your body feels like with that regular exercise. Learn to distinguish routine tiredness from something doesn't feel right. Let how your body feels be your guide.

Also, progress will be smoother if you also try to level-up with exercises designed to prepare for running.

The best approach I've come across is "Running Rewired" by Jay Dicharry. I was lucky enough to stumble across it in the local library.
