Run ~30 minutes 3 times a week, or every other day eventually (3.5x a week), and if you do that until you're 17 you'll be in better shape than 99% of your competition. If you keep the duration short and don't run too much you can make injuries rare and your stamina will slowly build to monster levels.

Sounds perfect! Stopping running to walk is perfect, if you keep building your stamina stopping running to walk will just become slowing your run down a bit, know what I mean?

Losing weight pretty much depends on what you eat. Honestly the best way is to count calories, they're listed on the boxes of most stuff. 3500 calories is a pound of fat so if you eat 500 less than you need you'll lose a pound a week.

You get diminishing returns after 3 times a week, so I'd do something that improves reflexes/strength or some other aspect of fitness like a ball sport or something fun. You really should get to a boxing gym though

Going from 1/week to 3/week makes you get a lot more stamina, 3/week to 5/week gives you a tiny bit more, so it's probably worth using that workout to do something else.

what u mean so if i run 3times a week ill build up more stamina then running 5-7timmes a week? how that work?

[eman-resu]

No it means running 5 times a week doesn't do a lot more for you than 3 times, you'll get more stamina from running more for sure, but your odds of getting hurt go WAY up which could hurt your stamina in the long-term.

Once you have years and years of running and know your limits really well you can run way more, safely.
