the only increased stress on knees is from resisting and skidding.
ergo, resist and skid less, and knee problem solved!
also my knee problems got better after i started riding fixed.
as to running...seriously, i can't even walk right anymore. i've posted about this before, but the few days i have to walk around campus instead of ride, my legs cramp up and i hate life. i'm a bad walker.
i rarely do it anymore.
