I used this program to support my training for the NYC marathon. I was very nervous to ramp up training because my knee would frequently tweak and hurt during my initial runs. I quickly noticed less or no pain once I started this program, and I was pain free for the remainder of my training. I still use some of the exercises I learned for fine tuning before going on some runs or walks. Great program and instruction!
