Make sure any footwear has superb arch support.

That amount of weight can cause tears in the structure of the foot, but unlike the usual plantar fasciitis, which can be dealt with by a bit of rest, gentle stretching and the odd steroid injection, it just gets worse and worse and worse. To run on it could cause a complete tear.

I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.
