Basically, I took on too many miles too quick. And boom knee pain even when walking now. I don’t want to stop moving entirely, but I’m just not sure what I should be during this downtime. I’m pretty new to running so only been doing it for about 2 weeks and I’m a little heavier, so it probably beat my legs up. But I love running and don’t want to give it up.

    I have gone through a similar thing. I cannot run due to being old and having really bad knees. I can, however, walk a lot, which is something I enjoy very very much. I recently hurt my foot and really can’t walk for the time being beyond just day to day stuff…no five mile walks for the foreseeable future.

    I’d recommend finding new exercises that don’t aggravate your knee for now. My foot injury has got me back into lifting weights (nothing crazy, more reps than massive weight) and having a new situp / pushup routine every morning. I’ve been enjoying my newly acquired extra upper body strength.

    Sorry about your knee. I hope you have a fast recovery

      Thanks I appreciate it. I’m trying my best to take it as easy as I can. Just trying not to aggravate my knee. Hoping to get back out there Wednesday after next. Doc told me 2 weeks
