Others have given good advice, for me making sure I had the right shoes and the right gate when I ran was important but also stretching well before hand, there's YouTube videos that'll show you proper stretches for running.
But the biggest thing was sticking with it, for me it took about 2 months of running/walking for my body to adjust to the impact and then I was fine. And don't overdue it, give your legs time to heal between runs.
