Recommendations: 7mm sole, don't go too fast, take your time, on concrete, flat, no hills!
If you don't do that, go below 7mm, go too fast or up-hills, you will get injured.

Knee issue again

Back to shoes
1st point, I don't like it. I really miss my 5Fs. Really, you don't the difference if you haven't tried it. I really look forward to each time I go barefoot, not shoes.
On the other side, I still felt a problem on my knee, not so much while running barefoot, but after, specially the day after. So I went back to shoes to see if it makes a difference. And it seems that it does. It seems better now, but may be it is also due to the exercises of active stretching I did after running. I did the same thing with the Achilles tendon. Going up and down on the border of stairs. Feeling that the sensations were similar, I thought about doing similar active stretches with the knee. And it seems that it helps so far. I will see how it develop.
Because of this, I didn't register to the HD/2. Once again. But last year, I register and didn't run. This year, I hope my knee will be OK by then and I could probably find a spare ticket somewhere. If you have one too many, let me know.
Let's see how the knee develops.
