Hi

everyone gets this, there are already some useful answers already in this thread

couchto5k.healthunlocked.co...

Or just search the site for Knee pain

In short, make sure you have decent shoes that correct for any overpronation (flat feet), do knee strengthening exercises, and rest if it hurts.

How far have you got?
