I'm wondering what I can do to help my knees out while I'm training for a HIM this summer. I do elevate, I do stretch but I don't ice and I don't have recovery compression socks. I'm wondering what I can do to maintain the health of my knees not only for teh race but long term. Any suggestions?

I am fourteen years old, and I have been doing triathlons for a while. I am just now trying to really focus on my training and I have met a dilemma, should I get a coach?? I have an awesome swim, and an ok bike leg. So my question is should I get a coach, and if I do should they be a triathlon coach? A running coach? Tired is a state of mind, exhaustion is a state of body.

I am a relatively novice, Clydesdale type runner (7months), I get extreme soreness in the front of both calf muscles when I run. It hinders my ability to run any decent distance and it is really bothering me. Any helpful suggestions will be great
