From a website explaining various types of knee injuries:

The reason runners develop runner’s knee is because of the nature of running.

Awesome.

I never would have guessed that running might cause people who run (as opposed to people who play the trombone) to get a condition called runner’s knee. Next they are going to say Tennis Elbow often occurs in people who play tennis.

Wonder if there is something called ‘biker’s butt’ from riding bikes? The powers that be spend so much money on nonsense don’t they. I once read a study that was done on why children fall off their tricycles…duh, it’s because they tip over was the conclusion.

There’s something called “Weaver’s Bottom.” It’s inflammation of the hip or something like that.

I was shocked to find out the leading cause of rider injuries came from falling off horses.  Can you imagine?

At least mine come from getting ON.

Jane, I’m still impressed by that. Really. Seriously. Impressed.

Laughing, but impressed.
