People like it a lot, I do it to keep in shape, but u don't find it enjoyable.
I you'd are having knee or ankle problems, try running on a trail or a dirttrack, much less impact on your legs and ankles, also look at the sites you are using, they mighty have tool much or too little cushion. And I would bet your form sucks, probably slapping your feet on the floor with each step |

Yea fuck running. Not good on the ole knees for fatties like me. I either bike or blade. I choose blading more because its specific hockey training for me. Dont ask me to foot race, but I can out skate people 1/3 of my weight.
The only time I run is in the winter on a treadmill. Much less impact.

Knee injuries can pretty much fuck up any interest in running. My wife will use the elliptical instead of running because of her knee issues. I really wouldn't advise anyone with a bad knee injury to run without consulting a doc to see how much abuse the knee can really take. You can really fuck yourself up for later in life if you continually abuse joints that can't take it.
