Katie -
I recently discovered your blog via La Belle Vegan, and though I know it’s sort of out of the blue, your comment about knees brought it to mind. Do you have any advice you could give me with regards to running with knee problems? I’ve been told I have a runner’s build, and my father is a long-distance runner, but during ED recovery, I injured my knee (I think it was to my ACL, but I never went to a doctor) and it still causes me problems. More recently I sprained my ankle, and that doesn’t seem to be doing much either. I know that partially the knee injury was related to being underweight. If it’s not too personal, do you find that being very finely built affects your running? Fat and cartilage between the joints etc.

Oh, wow, this comment turned into quite the beast on me! Sorry… and if you’ve read this far, thanks!

Wow, the people over at Artisana must really like you.
As for your running shoe question, new shoes usually take a few uses to feel more fit to your liking. Also, if you don’t already, you may want to try out stability shoes(which I have, but then again my feet are flatter than a pancake, so I need them) and insoles as well, which help with cushioning, arch support, and so on and so forth. Hope your shoes work out(haha no pun intended.)

Ah ha! I can’t get enough of that pic. Too funny. =) Thanks again, and hopefully those extra jars will do well in some kind of give away. If not, then I’m sure they’ll have a safe home in your tummy.

each new update to a shoe can bring changes (fortunately or unfortunately), so if it hurts, listen to your knees! I like to go to a running specialty store, they often let you return them with some wear, as you really don’t know how they’ll work until you run in them!

are the shoes the same model or just the same brand? I always swore by asics but would get a new model every time and continuously had problems with my knees, I finally decided to give brooks a try and they seem to be a lot better for my knees. Maybe you should try switching brands?
