    I would never run through pain. Running is the worst activity for your joints. If you can do different cardio exercises I would. In the end, running does a lot more harm than good to people.

    wow, now that's what I call misinformed. :noway:

    just take a few days off. ice them if you want to. but don't stop running. what you are probably experiencing is called runner's knee. I experience it occasionally if a take a few weeks off from running and try to pick right back up. the solution it to give it two or three days rest. good luck. the worst thing you can do for your knees is to not use them. go run.

    I would, however, go to a running store and have my stride evaluated and get a great pair of shoes.
