Good shoes, definitely; no matter how expensive they are, they'll pay off in protection from foot, knee, and back problems.

Walk/jog to get started, as everyone says. It does get easier.

If possible, run on dirt or blacktop instead of concrete. Dirt and blacktop have a little "give" which reduce the impact shock on your frame. Concrete has almost no give.
