Just lost my whole entry so I'm ticked! My legs were dead this morning IT Band hurt about 4 miles into the run so I had the regular routine of stopping and stretching. I have never had my legs feel this dead before in my life and between that and my IT band Issues I was wondering why I was even out there, very frustrated and discouraged! No watch this morning but I know my pace was really really slow, 9:30 or higher... I forgot to charged my Garmin last night so I have no numbers to give you, it was very warm out there this morning so maybe that contributed to my dead legs. Or maybe it was the lack of water consumption yesterday, I'm so stupid!!!

Rolled my leg after I finished up, see ya tomorrow.

Good job pushing through even when it wasn't fun.

Sure. Basically all I do is roll the hip area and then down towards the knee, and boy did it hurt today;-(

Let me know when you get it.
