Hello dear runners,<br /> <br /> I have discovered a passion for running around 6 months ago (yep, I'm a very beginner) and I recently start training for my first half marathon. I'm still a bit confused with many things.<br /> <br /> By last week my longest run was 15k (increased 5k from the previous week), this week I increased my long run of 7 more kilometers (22k) as I felt I could do it while a was running. The problem is that few hours after I finished my run, beside some muscle tiredness, my left knee start hurting. The pain is not unbearable but pretty annoying. Now, 2 days after, the pain decreased but I can still feel it while I'm walking or stay sit for too long. <br /> <br /> My question is... is this the famous runner's knee? and if so how should treat it and how long should I stay off running even after the pain disappear? <br /> <br /> I'm pretty concern as I'm just a beginner and I love running and I don't want to stop. I got my half marathon coming in the next few months and I would really like to run it :)
