Ouch!!! This is the first time since I started running in March 2010 to feel pain on my left knee.
As I was doing my usual training run last night in preparation for the Nature Valley Run, on my last 200 meters, I suddenly felt pain on my left knee. It's tolerable but I'm worried it might affect my performance or worse is that I may not be able to run at all... Pain, pain go away!!! :(
I'm having difficulties of going up and down the stairs and it's tender upon palpation (patella) on resting position. :( Need meds to help it go away. Hoping this will be okay before Sunday's run.
I had the same left knee problem as well. you might want to do VMO strengthening exercises (it's in the 'net).

thanks roelle for visiting and checking out my blog. regarding my left knee, yeah, bought a patellar strap and did light VMO strengthening. as of tonight, upon checking, i think my left knee is A-Okay.
