Summary
Lois, a runner who suffered a knee injury, struggled to recover and get back to running. She had a meniscal tear and arthritis in her knee, which prevented her from participating in activities she loved, such as running and hiking. Lois tried physical therapy and strength exercises, but she still experienced pain when running.

She reached out for help and was advised to start running again, even if it was painful at first. Over the course of 16 months, Lois gradually increased her running and strength training, monitoring her pain response. Eventually, she was able to run a 10K race pain-free and even planned to participate in a half marathon.

The key takeaway is that running injuries take time to heal, and progress should be measured in months, not weeks.

Takeaways
Running injuries can take months to heal, and progress should be measured in months, not weeks.
Building muscle strength is important for recovering from knee pain, but strengthening the structures of the knee is equally important.
Gradually increasing running and strength training while monitoring pain response can help the knee adapt and become more resilient.
Comparing running ability and pain levels month to month can help track progress and determine if the current approach is effective.
