I transitioned from an elliptical to the treadmill. Knees are in rough shape and it took about 4 weeks for them to get sore after pushing a little too quick and not getting proper rest. Probably wasn’t doing enough stretching either. Inside of my knee is where it hurt so don’t think it was an IT band issue.
Listened to my body, that’s the fitness victory. Knee feels better 7 days since my last run and just in time to set off of a thru hike of the Uinta Highline Trail on Sunday. Hella excited for the adventure too!
The knees are soooo delicate and I really struggled pacing myself while I started running. As an outdoor runner I always have to have the right shoes for the surface. Getting gel insoles and knee sleeves definitively helped a lot.

Sometimes resting is the hardest thing to do.
