You should worry, but not to extent that it would keep you from running completely.

You need to learn proper running style/technique, find shoes that work for you, and most importantly, pace yourself, depending on your fitness and weight. Don't overdo it.

It's worth it to find a good trainer in your area and start under a professional guidance - if only for a first few months.
