I can't stand the pain

I'll take some time off like you all suggested, but I feel like such a lazy bum if I don't run everyday.

Do you think it would be OK if I were to just go on walks every now and then? Or should I try to stay off of my feet?

Hi,

To start off, I'm a 17 year-old male and I have a few questions..But before I get into the questions, let me explain my situation.

I started running about two weeks ago and I've been running almosteveryday since then, but now the pain started to kick in sometimelast week, I was able to suck it up and keep running though, butliterally 20 minutes ago I tried to go for a run, but the pain in myknees kept me from moving at my normal pace.. It looked quitepathetic actually, I looked like I limping.

Now for my questions.

1. Does the shoe I'm wearing matter? Because I don't think theseshoes are working out. (Can you recommend a pair?)

2. Is there anyway to avoid getting pain in my knees/ankles?

3. I'm running 2.5 miles everyday. Is that too much, or notenough?

4. Can anyone give me some tips? Like I said before, I'm new tothis.

Thanks.
