I don't know for a fact it's the patella but, from reading about sore knees and when/when my pain is, that is my best guess. I will probably hit the doctor in the next week or so and get some physical therapy for it.

I have been doing some leg strengthening exercise and am icing it as I type. Hopefully it will get better with the rest from the terrible forecast for this weekend.

How did you change your stance? Mose angle out or less?
