Hi all, I've never had really great knees. I've noticed when doing jumping jacks during the 30 Day Shred dvd my knees really hurt, as well as when I run (and afterwards for that matter. It could possibly be how I land or my gait. I love running and would gladly do it more if I weren't afraid of injury to my knees.

Any suggestions?

Also, any sneaker recommendations?

    Under Armour Spines.
    I want to get me a pair of them as soon as i get the money.

    I have Puma's now and i love them but i have had them forever and they are starting to get rugged out.

    Go to a running store and get fitted, then you will know what your feet are doing and get the shoes that are appropriate.

    That's a GREAT idea. Thank you. I don't know of any specific running stores in my area, though.

    There are probably some closer, but Wilmington has plenty. The Delaware Running Company seems to be a good choice.
