Subject: First Tri and having knee pains
I need some advice I am having knee pain right behind the knee and I have had it now for over a week, haven't been training to hard because of it. I have my first tri on sunday and don't know if I should go for it! I don't know if I will be able to do the run, I know I can do the swim and bike?? I feel ready but just need some advice!!!
Thanks
GJ

Don't know how long you've been in your shoes but when I started to experience that kind of pain I changed to a new pair of shoes and the pain went away instantly. Switched back to the old pair and had pain again...I got the idea to change shoes from reading about sore knees as a sign that your shoes have gone the distance and should retire. Just a thought.
