Basically, I took on too many miles too quick. And boom knee pain even when walking now. I don't want to stop moving entirely, but I'm just not sure what I should be during this downtime. I'm pretty new to running so only been doing it for about 2 weeks and I'm a little heavier, so it probably beat my legs up. But I love running and don't want to give it up.

I've been thinking of going to the gym for strength training, I'm pretty new to all this so haven tbeen sure what to work on to help with the running. Also I believe I've got some pretty weak glutes and hip flexor. But when i started running my back pain disappeared so I thought just that would help
