Might be worth having a chat with a physio?
Sounds like it could be Patellar Tendinitis, unfortunately it's something that seems to get worse the more you run on it. Only solution I found was rest and strengthening exercises.Marathon training off to a slow start, managed 12km yesterday.
Concerned however with a sharp pain just below my right kneecap every time I take a step.... limited confidence I can complete said marathon (Manchester, April) to be honest!
A random ,step back in time ,1989,Derbyshire, England.
Healthily people looking to keep their fitness levels up.
Different Times...
I was a good runner back in the day , only ran to get fit for football,
I knew I didn't have the talent to be a good football player
So I made sure I had the stamina and energy to play for 90 mins
For me..run in was basically boring,it was all about Football lol.
Never ran a marathon,might have done a half.....but I did run daily for years and years early morning.in twine with the Dawn Chorus....
Different Times.....
Well done mate great effortDid the 10mile event at Morecambe today, came home in 1:15:50ish.
Had planned to set out at 5min/km pace but I think every km was faster so well chuffed with that.
10 miler equals an hour and a half of running for me, so impressed by that sort of time mate. Well done - bet you feel great now don’t you? :-)Did the 10mile event at Morecambe today, came home in 1:15:50ish.

Yeah its a great feeling once it's over, although I am a bit sore!10 miler equals an hour and a half of running for me, so impressed by that sort of time mate. Well done - bet you feel great now don’t you? :-)
Such a good, satisfying feeing after a long run (or bike ride) - it’s mostly what keeping me doing it tbh.
Enjoy having a few calories today anyway!
The good old days were an ordnance survey map and a piece of string. I recently graduated from that to strava on my phone. Very proud of myself.For my fellow runners, Garmin know about the current triangle issue and are working on it.
Might be back to the good old days of strava recording on my phone tonight!

Thanks. I'll ponder the upgrade to garmin.The old old days for me were just a stopwatch and run a distance I know measured by the car.
But good old days is strava on phone for me, stuck with that way too long but getting my Garmin 3 years ago was a gamechanger.
Where's this blue triangle everyone's on about?For my fellow runners, Garmin know about the current triangle issue and are working on it.

I believe your watch should be fine unless you activate the GPS by clicking the start/stop button, so as you're about to do an activity, that's when everyone's been getting it.Where's this blue triangle everyone's on about?
Yep just been reading up about it, thank fuck I was too lazy to go for the run after work I was supposed to do.I believe your watch should be fine unless you activate the GPS by clicking the start/stop button, so as you're about to do an activity, that's when everyone's been getting it.
What's all this then?Yep just been reading up about it, thank fuck I was too lazy to go for the run after work I was supposed to do.
In my defence I did run before work and at dinner time, ok so it was a poxy 4 miles each run but it still counts right?What's all this then?
Lazy?
Run after work?
What happened to the standard half marathon at 3.00 am everyday?
Say it ain't so, Joe.
Maybe you've had your fill of marathons and road running. How about trails, fell running or hill walking? Munro bagging?In my defence I did run before work and at dinner time, ok so it was a poxy 4 miles each run but it still counts right?
Struggling with the mojo this year tbh honest mate, have changed jobs from working 10/12 hours a day 7 days a week to a more "relaxed" pace job and it's fucked me, putting up with unskilled middle management and box tickers day in day out bores the shit out of me, I is losing me bite in this game, needs to find a way to fuel the fire again as I just can't be arsed
