I posted a message awhile ago and still have not gotten a reply from a Portland Fit Coach. Does anyone check the medical questions on a regular basis?
If not, my other question then becomes: will there be a doctor I can direct my question to at the Vancouver meeting this Sunday?

Frustrated runner,
Andrea

Andrea,

We do check often, there are four doctors that reply to the posts, sorry we missed yours, if you could re-post or tell me which one it is I’ll reply ASAP.

Cheers,

Dr. Bryan

Here is my original question:
I experience knee pain every time they run - pain in the knee cap (patella?) I pronate terribly! And I do wear orthotics. I'm new to this running thing, and am worried that I'm not going to be able to make it much past 6 miles. I LOVE running! But I'm worried that if I keep up running 4x/week I'll be damaging my knees. I've begun icing my right knee after I run.
Are there doctors at the Sunday/Vancouver meetings who I could talk to?
Thanks!
Andrea

Thank you!
