I've been working on my running, as I love running. However I've been having problems with my ankles (the swell up and hurt) and a trick hip that likes to pop out in the middle of a run. I don't want these things to stop me. So I ask, when do you push throw pain and when should you pull out all together?

    You will say that I always recommend the same thing but I know many girls that when they started strenght training, those kind of problem go away.
    Sorry I can't help you with your question :)

    In my opinion if the pain you are feeling means that something is terribly wrong, then you should stop. You do not want to push through something only to injure yourself.

    I have bad hips and a bad knee, the best thing I did was do PT and get exercises to help strengthen those muscles. Since I have done that- I have not had any issues with pain.

    ok, so Im a perv for clicking, but what ever.......

    gotta listen to your bod, there is a thin line between pushing your body and joints out of their comfort zone, and causing injury. I have pushed through shin splints and had to take 2 weeks off to recover because they got so bad that my shins were bruised and lumpy looking and I could not even walk.

    the only time I have bailed on a run and called for a pick up, I was under dressed, dealing with a nasty cold and still tried to run, it was 19 degrees f with 20 mph winds and I got frost nip on my wedding tackle as it froze to my running pants. I was pretty much to the point of tears by the time my wife caught up with me.

    I am going through the same thing (ankle pain) and calf/hammie pain. My doctor said my muscles were tight and that stretching was the only thing to do. I see a podiatrist next wednesday

    It's always a safe bet to pull out.

    Sounds to me like you really need to see an ortho doc or a sports medicine doc and have them let you know what is going on and when it is safe to push through the pain.

    I believe with your running the advice should be the same as it would be for what I thought this thread would be discussing. When in doubt, Pull out!

    Pulling out doesn't work.....I have a 7 year old to prove it.
