I am not a body builder I am just trying to get back in shape and lose weight. I am 5'8 190 and have lost 15 pounds over the past month. I am up to running a mile and a half in the morning and been trying to do it at night also. The question is since I am pretty heavy for my body and legs are not in shape yet I am experiencing strong aches in my ankles and knees. Should I take a day or 2 off of running to let my legs rest like you do when you lift weights? Or do I just work through it and the aches will be less as I lose weight? Thanks in advance
