Hang a pork chop around your neck, find someone with a big dog, preferably a rotweiller or doberman, and I'm sure you get the rest

start off with 1.5/2k and build from there, doesn't matter what pace as long as you don't stop running,
every second day then a longer run on sunday or close to the end of the week, once every 3 days if you are not as srs about it.

also get runkeeper if you have an iphone it tracks everything and is free blah blah, also has one of the most accurate gps out of all the apps

hahaha you have to push yourself if you want to start getting anywhere, didn't do any exercise for 4 months after having major surgery (8.5hr) and started with that distance, was fucking hard at first, try 1k even.

I was in the same boat as you, with what my weight used to be I couldn't run far at all.
What I did was go for a jog in the morning, and went as far as I could (until my legs were about to give in) then I stopped. I did this for a week, then, I started doing it in the afternoon (as well as the morning).

I kept that up until I could jog about 1km without stopping. Then I switched to 1 jog per day, and then found the max distance I could jog, and did that distance for 7 days. Then I tried pushing it up a little.
Don't worry too much about what pace at first, until you build up a little fitness, main point being that you don't stop.
1 thing I learnt that hard way was, it is a good idea to do a warm up walk and cool down, I suggest the same to you.
If you like, I can post up what distances etc I started off doing (before I lost any weight) I just don't have them with me at the moment.

Good luck with the exersise & weight loss mate, it is hard work, but believe me, it will be worth it.

Maybe try those c25k phone apps (couch to 5km).
