Friends telling you running's going to ruin your knees? Tell them they don't have a clue by pointing them here, here, and here. Or, if you don't like to read long articles (what are you doing here?), you can tell them that runners' knees are better in the long run—less arthritis, fewer knee replacements, and stronger. Plus, they don't turn black like runners' toenails.
Happy Running!
