When to use Starting from a Point with 从……起
从……起 means “starting from” a point in time and says that something begins then and continues afterwards. Put the time word between 从 and 起, and place the phrase at the start of the sentence or right after the subject: 从明天起,我每天早上跑步。 It means the same as 从……开始 but sounds a little more formal, so notices and rules often use it.
