High mileage: Worn out articulation-arthritis of knee. Consider taking an anti-inflammatory medicine such as Motrin (with food and water) a couple of hours before running (as long as you don't have diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney disease-then ask your doctor for guidance, and you could use tylenol (acetaminophen) prior to the run instead (unless you have liver disease : ) ) ! geez!
