Guest Posted 7 April 2008 Posted 7 April 2008 Is this knee anything like The Ankle? I'm afraid not; it exists for a start....
Daggers Posted 7 April 2008 Posted 7 April 2008 Is this "pasta" anything like "food"? Good question - and one I wanted to pose too...
Alexikokopops Posted 7 April 2008 Posted 7 April 2008 If I ran a half marathon with a minging hand then you can definitely run a marathon a week after you twisted your knee. They're definitely similar injuries, and both equally as detrimental to running. Definitely.

Raj Posted 7 April 2008 Posted 7 April 2008 No you didn't. You couldn't run a piss up in a brewery. I have you know i did I have to be able to run cos of all the people who want to kiss kill me!!! P.s I love you.

Definitely. Thanks Dr Aleksi. It is Dr, isn't it? BTW, you still haven't told me what to do about that rash yet....
Jordan Posted 9 April 2008 Posted 9 April 2008 OK Lisa, I chipped in a fiver--it sounds modest, but with the U.S. Dollar struggling, the American economy slumping and any fees that may be applied, that's about two or three months of work! Question time: I run and I go between 2-4 miles four or five times per week... I'd like to get in good shape for racing and would like to do a couple of 5k races this summer. When I run for four miles, though, the bones in my feet feel like they're about to crack somewhere around 3.25 miles. (even with my new sneakers, which were hand-picked by an expert who studied the arch of my feet, my stride and all that good stuff). How are you (or any marathoner, for that matter) able to go for such a long distance on road without breaking your feet??

I am by no means a running pro; this is my first (and last) marathon. I can't say I get any foot pain. Either I'm lucky or it's down to the footwear. I have seen it somewhere that insoles or inserts are good, but I don't do anything in particular. It may sound strange, but have you thought about seeing a chiropodist? You may have stress fractures, and all you need is a bit of rest.

You may have stress fractures, and all you need is a bit of rest. I've ran a half-marathon and do a fair bit of running and I'm with Lisa, I've never had foot pain. My running shoes are designed for marathon runners (I managed to pick them up half price, keen), so it could be the footwear like Lisa says (although yours sound pretty fancy pants). The only pain I ever got (apart from muscle pain if you don't stretch properly) is when my knees ached the first time I ran over ten miles on concrete, and I have dodgy knees.

You need to goto a specialist running shop who can evaluate your running style(ie Overpronating etc...!) The Running Fox in Loughboro' have a running machine which videos your running style and they recommend trainers accordingly ( i realise that Running Fox maybe a bit far for you to travel!!!!)

I need a neutral shoe with a bit of support.

Hardly doing a thing this week, and I think it's all caught up with me!
