oh yeah, it was fun. We usually start at Woodway, sometime draft to Allen's Landing in downtown, sometime to Cheminy Rock then come back. I just forget that I'm in the center of Houston when I kayak in the bayou. It's quiet and beautiful. I saw cranes, hawks, ducks and lots of turtles... Let me know if you want do it next time, I'll go with you.

After almost one week rest, I tried out my ITB again, felt nervous to step out, jogged very slow, still fell a little discomfort outside of right knee. First time use Garmin running watch, lots of ... read more

that's good, ease back into running. Keep up the stretches, foam rolling, & icing. You'll know you're doing it right if it doesn't get worse & slowly gets better! And yes the garmin has so many functions I've had mine for a year and still haven't figured it all out! Have fun with it!

Sorry about the ITB issues. I've heard a frozen water bottle massage can help and some stretches. Hope ya heal up in time for your marathon.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlYM3KWwrGY&feature=results_main&playnext=1&list=PLC0172FF3EBEC2879 this was by far the best stretch I've found that helped my ITB. Also, there's the stretch where you put one ankle over the opposite knee & do a squat while you hold onto something. You need to feel the stretch from your knee all the up to your hip so that you know you're stretching the entire length of the ITB. Also, after EVERY run, ice the whole itb asap. It'll prevent further inflammation
-
& you can also take NSAIDs (i.e. advil or naproxen) to relieve inflammation as well. I just take it right after a run, possibly with a meal. You dont want to take it forever, but it's ok to take for the time that your ITB is healing, given that you're not allergic or have stomach bleeding issues
-
Thanks Julia and Jeremy. I'll try the stretches and advil. Have a nice day!

After foam rolling, my ITB feels much better, feels normal when I walk, but still hurt when I run. Just did short jogging to see how my legs feel. Maybe I should resume my regular training next week.

alright Jackson Hill-Memorial Park-Ja... 4 mi 00:50 12:30 pace
The outside of my right knee is still bothering me, just did slow jogging this morning. I haven't run any since Houston Half. My schedule was 20 miles today. I have to try it other time.

I didn't do all my mileage today either. It's ok, your body doesn't forget that quickly. At least you got out to enjoy this beautiful weather! sounds like it could be your itb that is bothering you. Foam roll!

Julia, I started form rolling. It was hurt at the beginning. It's getting better now.

that's good. it will hurt like hell and usually will feel really sore right after you roll, but then it will get much better. Be diligent... i couldn't run much for 2-3 months earlier this year due to ITB. Don't push the running if your body tells you not to! Hope it goes away soon!

Rina, it was so nice to meet you too! You're so energetic. I know who I'm looking up to now... :-) I haven't run any since HH. My right knee still doesn't fell right, maybe it's IT Band problem.

Thats good your ITB isn't bothering you. It's perfect weather for a run and I love Terry Hershey Park,. It has some nice climbs to challenge you and very scenic.
