    Definitely just keep it up then! Another issue if you have properly fitted shoes is if you're landing wrong (heel to toe). I had to work long and hard to get rid of that habit as a former marching band participant. You should focus more landing towards the middle of your foot and using your heel to help absorb the impact. It is tough to explain...maybe this will help. That was another thing I had to work on and helped my running (I don't know why I call it that...I definitely am slow, so don't think you have to be running fast) and my body.

    I also had to do the knee brace thing for pain up until about week 5. I forgot to put it on one day and ended up running pain free. I mostly needed to strengthen my leg muscles and I have suffered from knee and back pain for YEARS.
