Cambridge, Ontario

I have been running for about 14 months now and in that time have trained and ran 2 half marathons. That should tell you a little about my personality! I enjoy running and would like to continue but need some help with a knee/leg injury thats got me taking a month off right now. I am a mature runner and don't want to injure myself so that I will be sorry down the road.

Profile

Mother of 2 (daughter also runs), grandmother of 2, work in the field of special needs.

Details

Hobbies: Enjoy gardening, reading, cooking/baking, and traveling. I like music-country, easy rock, some classical, a little of everything. Jazz is like fingernails on a chalkboard for me, and hiphop is a little too out there for me. I also enjoy a good movie-drama, action, adventure, and comedy if they're good.
Gender: F
Strengths: I am a pretty determined person-if I set a goal, I will follow through, sometimes to my detriment. I enjoy a challenge, yet am learing what challenges to take up ( a hard thing for me!) I am good at organizing and using my time.

Question about knee pain.
I am recovering from an IT band injury that occured last year. Now, the pain has travelled from my mid thigh to below the knee and I wonder if this is still IT band or is it something else?
