I started running on Jan. 1st of this year & started training to run a 1/2 marathon back in the summer. The week before the 1/2 marathon I went out for just a 6.5 mile run & the next day my knee was in all sorts of pain. I have a patella that slips out of place a couple times of year (when I am sleeping of all things) but my knee has never bothered me running until this time. With only a week until the marathon I became very panicked that my patella could have issues &/or cause me a lot of pain. I bought this & measured beforehand which would have placed me in a large as my thigh is a bit over 17”. My pants size varies between a 24 or 25 which would make me question who would even fit the small brace. I decided to go against the chart & order the small. I only got to test it once before the run because I was trying to keep as much pressure off my knee as possible. For a 3 mile run it worked great. My knee felt secure which was very reassuring. But the true test came with the 1/2. Around mile 5 or 6 I thought I started to feel the brace slipping & thought oh no I should have bought the large & I was wrong. But after the race when I got home & was able to look at it (I wore it under my pants) I was able to see it had all been in my head & it never slipped. Was fully in the same place. My knee felt secure the entire 13.1 miles & I am truly grateful for that. Hopefully you aren’t like me & buying one right before a long run so that way you can possibly test the size out with a little extra time if need be.
