Common Injuries for Walkers/Runners: Causes & Treatment Suggestions
When Good Knees Go Bad
Excerpts from WebMD
This is the third in a series of articles. In this issue, we’ll learn more about Runner’s Knee
(coming next issue… bunions)
As the name suggests, runner's knee is a common ailment among runners. But it can also strike any athlete who does activities that require a lot of knee bending -- like walking, biking, and jumping. It usually causes aching pain around the kneecap.
Runner's knee isn't really a condition itself. It's a loose term for several specific disorders with different causes. Runner's knee can result from:
• Overuse. Repeated bending of the knee can irritate the nerves of the kneecap. Overstretched tendons (tendons are the tissues that connect muscles to bones) may also cause the pain of runner's knee.
• Direct trauma to the knee, like a fall or blow.
• Misalignment. If any of the bones are slightly out of their correct position -- or misaligned -- physical stress won't be evenly distributed through your body. Certain parts of your body may bear too much weight. This can cause pain and damage to the joints. Sometimes, the kneecap itself is slightly out of position.
• Problems with the feet. Runner's knee can result from flat feet, also called fallen arches or overpronation. This is a condition in which the impact of a step causes the arches of your foot to collapse, stretching the muscles and tendons.
• Weak thigh muscles.
Common Symptoms
Some of the common symptoms of runner's knee are:
• Pain behind or around the kneecap, especially where the thighbone and the kneecap meet.
• Pain when you bend the knee -- when walking, squatting, kneeling, running, or even sitting.
• Pain that's worse when walking downstairs or downhill.
• Swelling.
• Popping or grinding sensations in the knee.
Treatment Options
Regardless of the cause, the good news is that minor to moderate cases of runner's knee should heal on their own given time. To speed the healing you can:
• Rest the knee. As much as possible, try to avoid putting weight on your knee.
• Ice your knee to reduce pain and swelling. Do it for 20-30 minutes every three to four hours for two to three days, or until the pain is gone.
• Compress your knee. Use an elastic bandage, straps, or sleeves to give your knee extra support.
• Elevate your knee on a pillow when you're sitting or lying down.
• Take anti-inflammatory painkillers. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), like Advil, Aleve, or Motrin, will help with pain and swelling. However, these drugs can have side effects, like an increased risk of bleeding and ulcers. They should be used only occasionally, unless your doctor specifically says otherwise.
• Practice stretching and strengthening exercises if your doctor recommends them (see suggestions below).
• Get arch supports for your shoes. These orthotics -- which can be custom-made or bought off the shelf -- may help with flat feet.
Severe cases of runner's knee may need surgery. If you think you may have a severe case of runner’s knee, consult your physician for a personalized treatment plan.
When Will I Feel Better?
There's no good answer. Recovery time depends on your particular case. Keep in mind that people heal at different rates. While you get better, try out a new activity that won't aggravate your runner's knee. For instance, if you're a jogger, do laps in the pool instead. Whatever you do, don't rush things. Don't return to your old level of physical activity until:
• You feel no pain in your knee when you bend or straighten it.
• You feel no pain in your knee when you walk, jog, sprint, or jump.
• Your knee feels as strong as your uninjured knee.
Prevention
There's a lot you can do to prevent runner's knee. You should:
• Keep your thigh muscles strong and limber with regular stretching.
• Use orthotics -- inserts for your shoes -- if you have flat feet or other foot problems that may lead to runner's knee.
• Make sure your shoes have enough support.
• Avoid running on hard surfaces, like concrete.
• Stay in shape and keep a healthy weight.
• Never abruptly increase the intensity of your workout. Make changes slowly.
• Wear a knee brace while exercising, if you have had runner's knee before.
Build a Better Knee with Stretches & Strength Training
Excerpt from Runners World
Whether you're recovering from a knee injury or trying to prevent one, the same training philosophy applies. Ideally, your off-road workout should include stretching and strengthening - -stretching to keep the iliotibial (IT) band from causing friction, and strengthening your hip abductors and glutes to keep you stable.
Iliotibial Band Stretches
Lean into each stretch for 15 to 20 seconds, then switch sides.
Wall Banger:
Stand with your right side about six to 12 inches from a wall. Squat and lean your upper body to the left until your right hip touches the wall. This stretches the IT band and strengthens the glutes.
Side Stretch:
Stand with your left foot crossed in front of your right, and lean your upper body to the left with your hands overhead. Lean as far as you can without bending your knees.
Backward T Stretch:
Stand, feet together, facing a wall about six to 12 inches away. Hold your arms to your sides like you're forming a T. Without bending your knees, reach down and back as far as you can with your right hand.
Strength Moves: Hips, Glutes & Quadriceps
Do your strength training independent of running so your muscles aren’t fatigued.
Leg Lift:
Strong hip abductors help prevent strain of the IT band. Lie on your side with your elbow on the floor. Lift your upper leg up about a foot and return to the starting position. Do 20-30 repetitions on each side.
Four-Way Kick:
Attach your ankle to a cable machine (or use a resistance band). Face the machine. Kick your leg backward 20 times. Rotate 90 degrees and kick to the side. Repeat in all four directions (when you're facing away from the machine, kick forward). Start with two sets of 20 in each direction on each leg, and work up to three sets of 50 in each direction.
Lateral Step Up with Kick:
Stand with your left side next to a step that's 8-12 inches high. Step up with your left foot, driving the right foot in the air so it's even with your waist. Step back down and repeat. This strengthens the lateral muscle of the quad to help protect the knee. Do two sets of 8-12 repetitions on each side.
Hip Lift:
Balance on your right foot (use a wall for balance). With your left knee bent, drop the left hip and lift it up. Let the hip drop, and try not to bend the left leg. You should feel this in the glutes. Do 15-20 repetitions on each side.
Step Down:
Stand on a step on your right foot. Lower your left leg toward the floor, making sure the knee of your right leg is centered over your foot. Do two sets of 10 on each leg.
The following is your training plan for the week of August 24-30. Note that the most up-to-date Training Schedule is always available on the Red Power Divas website at www.redpowerdivas.org/training.html.

2008 RPD WEEKLY SUMMARY
RED POWER DIVAS
Weekly Update
August 3-9, 2008
Coach’s Corner: What’s a Fartlek?
Derived from the Swedish term that means ‘Speed Play’, fartleks can provide an excellent endurance and strength session, as well as help improve your speed and race awareness. (Fart=speed and lek=play.) Basically, Fartlek involves varying your pace throughout your run. In other words, you integrate intense sprints into your workout, followed by a recovery run or slow jog slightly below your normal running pace.
For example, if you are a beginner, you might include five short sprints -- that's every 6 or 7 minutes -- over the duration of a 45-minute run. As your fitness level improves, you can increase it to 10 sprints. I usually run 4 to 5 minutes followed by a 30-second sprint.
Here is a suggestion for an intermediate program for a Fartlek session:
As you head out for your regular run (or if you are using your treadmill), keep up the same pace for about 5 to 10 minutes. Then, kick up your pace for about 30 seconds, going as fast as you can. After 30 seconds, bring your pace back to normal until your breathing is no longer labored.
The idea here is that each time you kick up your speed, you are putting stress on your cardiovascular system, which allows your system to improve its threshold. Thus, you will be increasing both speed and endurance. If you decide to introduce Fartlek to your regular training, just remember: Listen to your body and avoid doing too much too soon.
You have to be your own coach, so push yourself to make sure you're putting out the necessary effort.

Strength Training Tip: Build Speed with these Five Lower Body Exercises
Excerpt from Runners World
Strengthening your lower body is one of the best ways to build speed, says former world champion marathoner and physical therapist Mark Plaatjes. Do these five exercises two or three times a week during base training.
Single-leg Squat
Squat down on one foot until your leg is bent about 50 degrees; push back up. "Keep your hips even, and your knee over your foot," says coach Bob Larsen. Once you've mastered the move, add dumbbells (start with 5 pounds).
Reps: 2 sets of 10; build to 3 sets of 12
Strengthens: Quads and glutes
Balance Run
Stand on a flat-bottomed stability trainer (or a narrow board). Hold light dumbbells (2 to 5 pounds) and swing your arms in a running motion. Keep your knees slightly bent and your abs tight.
Reps: 3 sets of 30 seconds
Strengthens: Core muscles and hones balance
Heel Raises
Stand on a curb or platform with your heels over the edge. Lift up onto your toes, raise one foot and slowly lower. Once you have the move down, add dumbbells (start with 5 pounds).
Reps: 1 set of 8; build to 3 sets of 15
Strengthens: Calf muscles and Achilles tendon
Hamstring Push-up
Lie on the floor with your feet on a chair or Swiss ball that's against a wall. Lift your butt off the floor, then lift one leg off the ball. Slowly lower your body to the floor, using the hamstring of the supporting leg.
Reps: One set of 8 on each leg; work up to 3 sets of 12
Strengthens: Hamstrings
Plank + Lift
From a push-up position, drop onto your forearms. Focus on pulling your abdominals in. Then lift one foot about six inches (keep hips square to the floor), hold for five seconds, and repeat on other side.
Reps: Continue for 60 seconds, build to 3 minutes
Strengthens: Core and glutes individually
Training on Tuesday & Thursday: Campbell Community Center Track
We continue to have a great turnout for our evening trainings on Tuesday and Thursday. The Diva Coaches are doing a great job. Come out and join us!
Saturday Training Preview: August 9th, 2008
Join us bright and early (7:30 a.m.) on August 9th for our long distance Saturday training session at Campbell Park. Our mileage goals for Saturday are:
- Level 1: 6 to 7 miles
- Levels 2 and 3: 8 to 9 miles
Optional: Sunday Training
Location: Campbell Park (corner of Gilman & Campbell Avenues)
Time: 8:00 a.m.
Several people cannot fit our standard Saturday morning training into their schedule… but keep in mind that Sunday is also a great option for getting together to train. There will not be a coach available, BUT it is a great opportunity for Divas/Divos to informally train together. If you want to train on Sunday, contact other Divas/Divos through the Diva Google Group.
Optional: RPD Hill Training – Continues Tuesday, August 5, 2008
As we move into the second phase of our training for the San Jose Rock and Roll Half Marathon, we will add hill workouts as an option starting this week. If you have been training at Campbell Community Center track or other types of workouts on Tuesday, you may want to add hill work as part of your training. Training on hills prepares the muscles for faster running or walking without going anaerobic. Hill work will enable you to run and walk better on all types of terrain. Our hill training will include both distance and intervals.
- Location: Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve
- Time: 6:00 p.m.
- Coach: Diva Coach Jennifer Green – Please contact Coach Jennifer if you plan on doing hill work for this week.
- Directions: From I-280, north or south, take the Foothill Boulevard exit and proceed south on Foothill Boulevard approximately 0.2-mile to Cristo Rey Drive. Turn right on Cristo Rey Drive, continue for about 1 mile, veer right around the traffic circle, and turn left into the County Park entrance. There are several parking lots, including one designated for equestrian trailers. The trailhead for the preserve is located adjacent to the 85-car parking area in the northwest lot. For interactive Google directions, click here.
