My movement is limited as if I'm over-encumbered, but my carry weight shows 208/320.
I've tried dumping everything in a barrel to get to 0/320 and I still move very slowly.
Is there a way to reset myself so I can walk quickly and run again?

In Skyrim, holding the shift key will make you walk instead of the usual jog the character always does when moving. This is useful when trying to sneak past an enemy, as it makes you harder to detect.
Pressing the caps lock key will toggle the walking state, but it's never really explained in game, so it confuses people who accidentally press it while playing. This is what happened to you, it's not you being overencumbered, just a slightly unknown feature of the game.
