Did a little 5k in 25:48 this morning. I like the little loop I've made around the neighborhood.  I always do so much faster on the 2nd mile on this loop.  I don't know why, it's just flat eveytime I've run it I've been either below 8 or right at 8, which is fast for me.  And then I die on the 3rd mile :). 

My left knee was buggin, and ITB on the same leg.  It's so wierd.  I haven't felt my ITB for about a month and I've been stretching the same and then it just decides to come back out of the blue.  oh well, I'm sure it will go away again and I'll just keep stretching my little heart out and maybe get a foam roller.

8:29. You didn't die too much.

Good luck at Hobble Creek. I wish I could be there to watch you. Maybe you could record it on video and sent it to me.

consider it done. Oh wait, my video camera was stolen. Where were you again on the night of July 27???

Nice work Leandra! Don't just stretch that ITB, you need to strengthen your hips - it seriously is the only thing that will get it to go away permanently! I've battled ITBS for SOOO long and always thought it would just go away. Especially if it's starting to bug now, the downhill at Hobblecreek could ruin it! PM me if you want to know some good exercises to help your hip stability...or RW had some GREAT ones in the mag this month! With HC being so close, maybe stretching and rolling would be best for now...not sure on timing of it all - just BE careful!!

RAD- I would love some good exercises for it. I can still feel it a little during my run, and I know I'm babying my left leg a little because now my right leg feels like it's doing all the work:P. I should go buy that copy of RW too, haven't gotten a roller yet- need to do that too. It does make me worry about Hobble Creek too.
