Knee Pain Help

Hi,

I have several races planned for this summer and my first HIM. However, about a month or so ago on a brick workout on my run the center of my knee started to hurt and I had to walk.

I ran again a couple of days later and about 4 miles into my run the same thing happened. I talked with my chiropractor (who does triathlons) and he said to take a couple of weeks off. Okay, I was thinking I am already behind in my training schedule but I will listen. I took two and a half weeks off and ran today. Okay same pain.

I remember hitting my knee pretty hard a few weeks ago but didn't think anything of it. I don't want to go to the doc so I am hoping to hear from someone what they did.

I guess I will walk and run as I can but it sure hurts.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Kendra
