Good luck blondie! I want to run soooooo badly as well, but after a few tries and a few extremely painful days, I've gone back to a very brisk walk! I drug my extremely in shape hubby along for a 3 mile walk tonight and he was even breathing heavily with our pace, so I know it's doing some good! We both broke a good sweat, not just a light perspiring thing.
Maybe you should try that first, at least to get your body used to really moving a good bit fast. I'm not saying don't try it though! Just take it slowly.
There are categories in marathons and such for clydesdale's and athena's for higher weights, and I've read about people running and cycling at weights higher than yours, so it's definately a doable thing!
