I feel like I'll be able to run indefinitely soon!

My knees hurt though, it's tendon or fascia pain though, not joint or muscle

Thanks for checking in! No longer have knee pain, but I'm keeping the distance the same until I'm a little more conditioned.

Am getting some mild ankle pain though, like mild overuse or from sitting on it too much or maybe my running technique is wrong.

I'll try to figure that one out today.

What shoes are you running in currently?

[–] luthis 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sfida Hyper-lite, very new. Just some basic $40 shoes from Shoe Warehouse, just to get me back running again.

I'm not entirely up with the play on running shoes, but my experience in other areas suggests that there is a lot of marketing and 'science' that has as much credibility as the dirt I should be cleaning off the shoes.

Shoes can definitely make a difference. You don't need to spend loads though, that's definitely a trap you can fall into. I can't really comment on the shoes you are using but it could be worth looking into.
