My knee hurts when I run a short distance?

Chase asked:

Ok so im 15, and me and my dad have been running for a week and a half now. We run a mile every night, it usually ends up Between 10- 11 minutes long, I know it sucks. Well I went to Jump street (indoor trampoline park) last sunday, its Thursday now. After I was at Jump street for 3 hours, I left, went home and went to bed. I woke up the next morning with excruciating pain in my legs. The pain has gradually subsides over the last couple days to the point where it almost doesn’t hurt at all during the day, but when me and my dad run at night, my thighs and knees are in alot of pain. I can still run the mile, but it hurts like crazy afterward, like I go and limp to sit down. Granted im in horrible shape (im working on it), it shouldn’t hurt like this and it didn’t hurt before jump street. So my question is, when will my legs be better? And do you think I should buy a brace?

    Oh i would definitely keep a watch on your leg so that you dont mess it up bc things like that come back when your older, but for now i would ease up on the running just for your own good and ice it before you go to bed for an hour in 10 minuet intervals and also using icyhot is a great help
