Is the pain around your knee or inside of your knee? If it’s at the top and/or bottom of your knee then maybe you need to strengthen quads— try leg extensions— and work on hip flexor flexibility.

Hey there. It's around the knee. I run up hill a lot. That's not a problem. It's coming back down 😭 it takes its toll. Repetitive runners knee I guess. Quad like 🐂🤣

Lmao. Very very steep hills around here. Puts immense pressure on the knees on descent. I generally try to plan routes back through lesser gradient trail paths with a bit more give. The gait is Def a possibility. Never studied my mechanics. I appreciate your insight

Perhaps we try another method of coming down from the top of a hill?
Possible options include zipline, parachute, elevator, and leaping and praying for the best. 
Could actually be hip-flexor tightness and low back tightness contributing to an off-balanced gait?
