Trying to find a way to run regularly with runners knees. I’ve typically been a 10 mile a week at least guy to supplement weight lifting for the past 20 years, but running as a beefy guy has wrecked my knees.
After 2 off weeks 3.5 miles felt pretty good today. Tore my meniscus running 13.1 in 2015 (never walked after though it was the 4th mile - adrenaline is a helluva drug) and it’s kind of been slowly down hill since.
Hoping I can get back to running at least twice weekly here soon…easing my way back

A lot of it is for injury prevention as far as legs go. I had a left vmo quad injury last Feb., took awhile to heal from that. I'll usually do legs a day after a long run on Sunday. I've been lazy about core in the past so I'm focusing on that with some chest and back sprinkled in. Fitness is coming back around with easy paces hovering around 8:30 with weekly mileage around 35-50 miles. Current half pr is 1:37 and full is 3:34, though I wasn't able to race a lot last year due to injury.
I never try anything I just do it!

Sup all, I started this thread years ago, glad to see it's still going strong years on. I'm still on my cardio game.
Running with a Garmin venu 1 and love it. Bought it during lockdown and it's served me fantastically.
Anyone seeing a swathe of people joining running clubs for dating?Founder of the Jason Genova archive.

Timely thread bump. Must be the higher powers telling me something.
I had the most dreadful day this past Saturday. About .7 miles into my third half marathon I got swallowed up by a recessed manhole cover in the street and totally borked my knee up. (I swear this mother fker was 5-6" below the knobby street level) I tore the ACL in this particular knee for a second time about 4 years ago and never got it repaired so it's sucpetible to injury as it is. I limped off the course, tried to compose myself, and limped the remainder of the way and completed the 6.55 quarter marathon route instead.
In the process I torqued my Achilles up on the other side from running weird, with a strange gait & stride, now Im in a real pickle.
I feel like a complete and total failure. All my family was there waiting to cheer me on at the end, I had a great training cycle and was really looking forward to getting that 13.1 medal at the end, not the lame 6.55.
This one is going to sting for a while, mentally I am fuked over this.

any shoes that are stylish too? these hokas look too absurd nowadays, the sole is 5 inches high and look like astronaut shoes now.
I've tried witching to flat soles and barefoot running but beside the nice Wide toe box, my left ankle is fuked now.
Going to go back to lunarglides or try some Astra shoes.

Not gonna lie, I saw a group on IG and wanted to join because the girls actually looked decent but what are the odds that youre the only one trying to pick women up like that
Also, after runs I tend to smell horrible and well that doesnt help if youre trying to game some of these girlsU.S. Marine l Energy Drink Connoisseur l Halo Championship Series Pro Player
