Yes heisenberg but that's only a 38% reduce. Swimming or cycling will result in a significantly higher reduction of the stress on your joints.
I would only wear those KSO's if I was ordered to do so at gun point

38% is quite a lot.

I agree, and I'm not bashing swimming or cycling - I'm just saying that the "dangers" of running are blown out proportion.

That makes three of us.

Yeah, but you could conceal the KSOs under socks....

My knees feel fine...


I'm not sure what chewing has to do with recreational running?

Chewing may not be good for your teeth, but choking isn't good for your life.

Bad knees are to running as bad teeth are to chewing...

It's an analogy pointing out that using something as it was designed to be used often results in wear and tear...

I could just as easily have made an analogy about tires rolling and the wear they naturally accrue as a result...

Still running year and three month later and I haven't lost any weight...

I never measured my waist, but my pants seem to fit about the same...

My circulation however is fantastic and I don't recall having had a cold or any other bug during that time which is unusual for me...

Diet. Most important aspect.

Most of the dishes I eat are vegetable and whole grain dishes which use meat for flavoring instead of the main course...(no sodas, and sweets of any kind are VERY rare)

I don't count calories so that of course is the problem...
