Re: PTI running style
i adopted the low arm mr bean style and to my shock/relief it worked. I dont know the science (if any) but i found it concentrated the effort in to the hips. I adopt similar principles whilst out pulling bints in Leeds.

Re: knee
You have more than likely had it 'trimmed' not removed. It is an corrective operation as much as having a broken leg fixed would be. Id assume it wouldnt be a bar on entry but the gurus at AFCO will set you straight.
