I finally was able to run out to Payson park its been over a year since I was able to extend out on that route, and it felt good! My IT band stayed about the same and didn't really bother me that much, I did start to feel it towards the end but I have no pain right now and I was able to roll it for a few minutes this morning and last night.,.. I will have to see how I do tomorrow and how it recovers but I feel like I am on the up swing here, knock on wood of course;-) I kept the pace pretty easy on the rollers going into the Park and then coming back, my average pace was 8:25 with my HR average at 136, total time was 59:39. I finished up with some strength training on the Bowflex, upper body, and then I rolled my leg to finish up... I hope I can get in a similar length run in tomorrow with no pain, but we shall see.

 

See ya tomorrow.

Good job Bro. It sound like your getting better, just do try and over due it, keep it more on the easy side.

Great job man, just keep that IT band in check.
