Threadmill Tech

    Was'nt sure whether to put this in the sports section or here but seeing as how it's all done in the gym I figure here would be more appropriate.

    My problem is that having joined a gym 2 months ago my workout has consisted mainly of increasing my times on the threadmill. When I started I was barely able to get over ten mins without pulling up but I have been able to up this to over 50 mins and 10km runs fairly regularly.

    The problem is that over the past two weeks I have suffered from some serious pain in my right knee and I'm now worried that I might have done some damage. It usually only appears after a long run and disappears within a few days. I stretch before any running, not a lot but what I would consider adequate.

    Anyone have any ideas what I might be doing wrong or a solution to stop it happening. I'm not sure whether physio is a good idea or maybe some support for the knee while running. Or maybe I should just stop the long runs and give myself more time to build up to them.

    Suggestions and advice are always appreciated.
