I can tell you that the running has done some amazing things for her ... she had a difficult time with a boyfriend situation and she was going through some rough issues, and the running is really what helped her keep her cool and work through it ... she doesn't go a day without her run.

Good for your daughter Mo.  Jogging is a very good regulator.  I hope she is carefull, jogging everyday really is a pounding on the body, especially the knees and hips.  At my age, it is very hard to jog two days in a row. 

She's such a tiny girl ... does size matter?

I am in no way an expert but the smaller you are, the less pounding there is.  It is like everything else, you really need to know your body.  I have had good luck with using cushioning orthodics, staying hydrated, not wearing worn shoes, taking glucosamine supplements, stretching and warming up, and not over-doing it.  I also go very easy on down hill areas.  In the summer, when I tend to jog more, I need to wear a knee brace/stabilizer from time to time.

 

When she comes home there is a trail by the water that she likes to run on ... it's uphill all the way for miles ... that can't be too good, huh?

Uphillls harder on your cardio, downhill harder on your quads.

Thank you!
