so i have been running in two pairs of newtons most of the winter.
now i am noticing i have patella discomfort.
anyone else have this issue or is it just me?
thanks
If you’re just now feeling it then it is probably something else causing it.
i’ve been running in them for 3 months now and felt like my tendons were sprained after my last run. i took 2 days offand some anti inflamitory and it’s better.
Have you up’d your mileage recently? It could be IT band related.
sounds like something else to me… especially if you have put hundreds of miles on them.
Have you increased your intensity? speed? mileage?
Newtons got rid of my pain. It has been two years since I was diagnosed with a chronic partial tear of my MCL, early onset of Osteo-Arthritis and a bevy of other injuries and my doctor told me I should stop running. Only time I get knee pain is when I am over-striding during speed work or running when very fatigued… in short, when my form goes to shit, my knees hurt
Yep X2. 3 knee surgeries and if I didnt have Newton’s I wouldn’t be able to do IM’s. Believe me at the cost of the shoes I’ve tried many times and can’t do it.
