GlennR Jul 2018 12:05pm, 19 Jul 2018 36,689 posts	0 GlennR Catastroknee. It doesn't like hard work, bit like me.

GlennR Jul 2018 1:26pm, 19 Jul 2018 36,695 posts	0 GlennR It certainly deserves rest from running LD. Cycling doesn’t seem to bother it.
Columba Jul 2018 2:50pm, 19 Jul 2018 15,995 posts	0 Columba When I run, the knee is encased in a thick black support with a little round hole in the middle for the kneecap to look out of.

Columba Jul 2018 5:35pm, 19 Jul 2018 15,997 posts	0 Columba Glenn, it definitely does help. Physio thinks it's a tracking problem with the kneecap, and the support keeps it on the straight and narrow. Sometimes aches a little as I run, but no sharp pains. No, haven't tried the eyes yet. Next time I visit my granddaughters I'll let them paint eyes.
