The weather is getting nice for an evening jog.  My knee hurt a little toward the end, but not bad.  Its probably some inflamation at the insertion point at the knee of my ITB.  There is no swelling, just a slight pain while running after a couple miles.

Cold run in the 30's.  Not use to the cold in the south.  I was pretty bundled up and had ear warmers, so it wasn't too bad.  I tried out KT tape, but I didn't have it on long enough and it came off as I started to run.  Next time I will try attaching the tape before I go to sleep for a morning run.

Jogged the Rock N Roll Savannah 1/2 marathon w/ a couple of friends.  My knee in peticular and other joints were hurting pretty bad.  I finished in 2:00:22.  It hurt to walk after.  I'm not sure if I will be doing my race next weekend and if I do it will be slow.  I need to take a running break for a while to heal.  First true running injury besides sprained ankles which heal w/in a week.
