Thanks!  I am so happy that I can run too :)

The prewrap patella strap is super easy to make.  I’ll try to explain it the best I can here:

1. Take prewrap and wrap it around your upper calf.  You want to wrap it around tight, but not so tight that you cut off circulation.  The prewrap will also tear if you wrap it too tight.
2. Wrap it around 10-12 times.  Wrap it so you gradually cover more skin as you wrap (so you are not wrapping it over and over in the same spot).
3. Next, use your palms and roll the prewrap from the bottom edge (the edge that is NOT closest to your knee) to the top.  You should form a tight cord by using your palms to roll the prewrap.
4. Now push the cord you have made to the top of your kneecap.  It will then roll down to your patellar tendon and settle at it’s natural spot.

Here is also an article I found about making patella straps out of prewrap.

I hope I explained it well enough.  I am thinking of taking a video or pictures of each stage and putting it up later.  (I’d do that now, but I am at the law school right now!)

Let me know if you have any other questions!!  Ask them here.
