Hello everyone,this is my 1st thread on her.
I was a moderate runner 3yrs ago,(half marathons)then I had a severe RTA,smashing my left leg in 26 places.The effect was that I had severe scar tissue formed in my knee joint and couldnt bend it.
After x3 ops I can now bend it to 90degrees and have made my 1st attempts at running again-2mile with short stop.
Has any one else overcome any thing like this or know anyone?Has it been possible to get back to any distance with running and does any particular brand of shoes help with softening the impact on the injured leg?
I would be grateful of any support in my attempt to restart running.
