Depending on what’s going on with your knees, (IT band, for example) do the relevant stretches before and after every run. Also, invest in some nice running shoes that address your striking habits- they will video your strikes on a treadmill and help you find the right ones at a good running store.

There can be many causes:
1.) Over-training / Too many miles to quickly -> Lower mileage / speed
2.) Poor form -> YouTube proper form and drills or go to a running store / coach for a gait analysis (commonly knee pain may be because of heel striking)
3.) Recent weight gain -> Slow your mileage / pace until your body adjusts

Hello fellow SAP Consultants!
I am SAP HCM consultant having 4.10 years of experience. I feel that this module doesn’t have any growth. My first switch took me to 9LPA from 6LPA and now the second switch is being offered for 11.5LPA where I can see my fellow friends in SAP having more than 15LPA at the same experience on their second switch itself. Should I be worried about my skillset? Any insights would highly be appreciated. I feel stuck.

Have been running for the last few years and consistently get “dead feet” feeling after 3-4 miles. Feet go somewhat numb and I stop and stretch to relive the pain. Have tried a few different types of shoes (on cloud / altra / Nike) to no avail. Even tried the loosening of my shoes. Any advice? I’m in good shape and can cycle for 40-60 miles at a time so endurance isn’t the issue, it’s my feet. Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions!!!
