The nice thing about compression shorts with knee/hip support is that it helps on both sides vs previously just one side. It also feels more solid so I don't feel like I have to worry as much about injury from a careless innocuous movement.

If you don't already use compression shorts for physical activities, it's worth considering.

Something like this:

But there's plenty of other options out there.
Oddly my hips don't get bothered by running.

My right knee does and does my right ankle (but that has been shredded too many times to count).

I do wear some very light compression shorts, but mainly cuz I look good in them.

I'll never get to the point of running and never tiring again, but it is good to chase it.

I took today off.
