And it's not cos I'm kneeling down too much.... ;-)
After running on a treadmill (only for a minuet or two at a time cos I'm new to running), I find for the next few days my knees really ache. I've got new trainers (MBTs), try to have a good technique (ball of foot down first rather than heel) and have used knee supports - neoprene thingys.

How can I avoid knee injuries and pain?

I had visions of you somehow coming across the poison penner and giving him a hefty knee in the @"*&'s.
A Glasgow kiss is much more refined.
Why do you think that you are going to get knee injuries?

Ibuprofen will ease the pain.

Take the advice of your trainer.

Hi salla!

Hello babes x
(that is to helen, sandy & sqadlet).
BTW I AM IN THE LIBRARY....

Because sqad, I just do. Injuries are inevitable with me. Should I carry on running through the pain or just power walk?

salla...no, if you are in pain....then stop.

Graduate the increase in exercise.

Bummer.
You can't get more gradual that a minute at a time though can you? One minut run, two minutes walk - that's what I'm doing. Pathetic - I shouldn't be getting pain after that surely?
salla...well you are....so accept it.

Are you meant to run in MBTs? I thought they were for walking in, like fit-flops.
