Nice suggestion! I tried it today and it seems pretty good! My hips and legs don't really hurt, though I'll reserve judgement on that over the next two days. It's definitely not intuitive for me though. I'll have to focus on it for a while.

Running on grass really does make a difference. I had been running on grass until today. Today I tried another route and ended up running on pavement most of the time.
Yep, I'm an American living in the UK. I've been here for a year. How long have you been here?
