blah Treadmill 2.6 mi 00:27 10:23 pace
warmed-up, stretched, started getting into a good head space and *bam* big calf cramp. Had to stop and stretch it, got back on but couldn't continue. Considering my last run was 11 days ago, I gues... read more

Shake it off Doug. The man boobs will melt off and you'll be back in great shape. You can do this! You got off your arse and moved. Kudos!

I feel your pain! I PRd Richmond marathon in November. Achilles tendonitis has shut me down and I am ten pounds heavier. What the heck happened?

#dailymission Favorite race of 2011: The Vermont 50! D'uh! Pretty sure it's going to be a yearly tradition!

@Ultrastevep It was great in 2011. I had heard about the food issues, and other complaints about the bikes. Went in expecting issues, but had none. There was plenty of food left at the end and all of the bikers were great! always pleasant on the course, yielded the trail to the runners when necessary gave plenty of warning when coming up on you. Couldn't have been a better experience for my first ultra!

Glad to hear it's improved....I haven't run VT50 since the early 2000's.

I gotta' admit. I'm kinda pissed that I didn't get all of the "fun" stuff on my year-end report. Did this happen to anyone else?

I did 30 minutes on the treadmill. Walk 1 minute, run 9 minutes at 6.0 mph. Felt pretty good. ITB pain started to creep in toward the end. Lots of stretching and warming-up/cooling down. Followed-u... read more

I notice from this workout and the last your ITB starts to creep in around 2-3 mile point. Do you think it's part mental? You ran through it your last workout. I do appreciate the need to play it safe however.

In case you were wondering: "Update" - http://reallynotarunnr.com/2012/01/01/update/
1 person liked what Doug said-
Thanks for the update Doug! Injury sucks, reading the adventures & seeing the miles logged by those who aren't can really suck too. I struggled w/ that a lot during my bout of tendinitis, but when the healing comes you'll know it's worth the cost. Never give up, never surrender!

Nice post Doug. Same issue here. In PT, can run a few miles, but randomly feel ITB twinges when I'm driving in the car, sleeping...weird! We'll get there, this injury isn't a "forever" thing (I beat it 4 yrs ago, so I should know, lol). Hang in there, and if you want to talk or vent, message me!

Can't wait to hear your progress. You're not alone, I'm down & out with ITBS for 2 months now. Getting with a new PT on Monday because clearly trying to rehab on my own wasn't enough for this beast of an injury! Good luck!
