The ache at the front of the knee that keeps coming back. Rest settles it, then it's back within a few runs.
This free plan is what I'd give a runner in that spot. Five pages, in the order you need them:
- Is it runner's knee or something else? Where it hurts tells you, and what to do if it isn't.
- Can you keep running? The simple pain rules I use, and a cut-back week that keeps you running while it settles.
- The rehab, in order. Three phases, a 2-minute mirror test, and the fixes for the hips, quads and stride that keep feeding it.
