So I said I wasn't going to run until I see the Dr. Well, I just couldn't stand it anymore and my IT band hasn't been hurting at all. So I promised myself even if I felt good I would only do 3 miles.
It only took about 3 strides for the pain to kick in. It was only a 3/10 so I decided to keep going. By the end of the run I had no pain just tightness. My stride felt akward and not very smooth. My foot fall sounded heavy.
I also did my Jillian Michaels workout. I am on my 4th day of her 30 day "making the cut" program. I couldn't have lived with myself if I let this "down" time in running get the best of me. Her program is supposedly meant to help you drop the last ten pounds. The first two days I had gained a half lb. so I was not very happy, but this morning I was down 2. So I guess I will stick with the program and see where it takes me.
