Yeah!!! IT band is working with me. I took six days off from running and just did a few weights and a little strechin' and tonight I felt pretty good. I stopped for a couple minutes at 2 and 4 miles and did a few streches and a lot of strechin' when I finished. I only averaged 9:22's but at least I'm back on my feet. Last race I started training for was haulted by the infamous IT band. I'm not going to let that happen this time. Well I am going to try to not let it happen. Slow and steady is my new approach. Not hard and fast. "Thank you God for another day." |
