Hi everybody! Just have a quick question. I've been having pain in my right knee that comes and goes. One morning, I had to abandon my run only a mile into it. Then today, I biked 18 miles and it bothered me. The weird thing was after the first 8 or so miles it quit bothering me. A friend of my said it sounded like planter fastid????ous ( I have no idea how to spell it). Any suggestions

That would be Plantar fasciitus? and its a problem with the bottm of your foot , heel area. Knee pain can be from too many things, if its bad enough to make you stop, you should probably check with a doctor. Could just be the tendons and such in and around the knee are not liking the work load. Have you increased the distances and times lately? if so cut back.
