The side of knee hurts like fuck after running 5km every day for a week so I’m taking 2 days off.
It takes me about 40mins to run said 5km.
Anthony Barnes
Same but I didn't run as much
Did 7.5 km and 8.5 km on two separate occasions ~45 min (4 days apart)
at the end of the first run my side was hurting but I just assumed it was fatigue
the second day it hurt from the start and afterwards it was hurting like hell for one day and a half and only after 4 days did it completely subside
What can be the cause of this?
Rhythm? Posture? Sole Padding?
William Richardson
Just did my first timed 5km. It was exactly half my 10km PB (40mins). wtf
I did do it on a straight road and kept having to stop and turn around but I was expecting to do it a bit faster, maybe I need to do it in a racing environment
Ian Peterson
Same here, I bought one of those knee compression sleeves and the pain went away.
Angel Edwards
Anyone else perform better when it's colder out?

How do I relieve that chest burn after running/cardio/etc? Breathing techniques?
Or am I just supposed to get used to it?
Benjamin Sullivan
not meaning to be rute but how much do you weigh? If you are heavy then running can fuck up your knees
Isaac Williams
You must be pretty heavy if you're doing 5k everyday and still taking 40mins. Probably why your knee is hurts good idea to take a break.
What do you mean by "side" like a stitch or? If muscle related just stretch and remember to warm up before you run that'll save some pain.
My pace has slowed recently had a sore throat probably had the corona or something a while back and my shins have been a bit scuffed but i'm picking back up the pace. Goal is to get a 10k at a 5min/km average pace.
