Went to the phsyio last night,

I have not done much damage to my knee, just knackered the connective tissue on the outside of my right knee. I still cant run 100metres without pain.

He examined my running technique and said that the top half of my leg rolls inwards and the foot points outwards as I run. He said this along with my long day out on the back of little training has caused the strain.

He has recommended me for Gait analysis and says that orthotics may help. Im very unsure about how these things help when running on the fells. Roads maybe, but on the fells the ground is so random anyway, I never get into a definate running style.

I interested in peoples views on this, do they just want to see the colour of my money?

He told me to rest for about a week, then build up slowly again. Running on the flat, he say I should stay off the hills for about a month. Thats great for fell running.

Cheers
Jamie
