..Although, I'm not sure if running is necessarily better than jump-roping intervals if your overall goal is just getting some cardio into your day and over with. (But I understand running can provide a lot of stress-relief, so there is that.)
C25K is definitely a great way to start out, that's what I did for the first few weeks or so.

The #1 thing new runners seem to mess up is going out too hard (or training too much). You shouldn't expect yourself to run X distance all the way through, walking breaks are a must.
