C25K is certainly a good way to create a good habit of weekly cardio exercise - supplementation with some strength work (lifting?) is ideal.

Welcome to the forum.

Most new runner's aches and pains are caused primarily by the impact of running, so do all you can to minimise it. Slow down, avoid heelstriking, keep footfall under your body not out in front, run on grass or treadmill and wear proper running shoes fitted after a gait analysis done at a specialist running shop.
Enjoy your journey.
