I really think you're being pedantic to the point of detriment. Runner's knee is a very well known condition in, wait for it, runners! https://www.mayoclinic.

- moscoe 3mo agoSeems to me hiit is a way to avoid these overuse injuries.
- andriy_koval 3mo agoI think runner knee was a bad example. Sprint running is more sensitive to form in order to avoid injuries, especially in older adults.
- jr3592 3mo agoI think you're wrong. I've been running with good form, proper nutrition, and rest, for over 40 years, averaging 20-30 miles a week, and have absolutely zero knee issues. I think you're running a risk here of turning more people off from running, and doing more harm than good, by warning people of a risk that while possible, is unlikely to affect them. Generally these types of degenerative conditions have other underlying conditions driving them, and are not simply the result of running. We are born to move.
