AM: 2 miles!  First 1.5 was glorious then the leg started to get tight.  I stopped before it hurt though.

PM: 1.5 miles.  Last .5 the IT band was tight and sore.

AM: 1.5 - Its not so much sore as super tight.  I am stopping before it starts to hurt.  When it tightens, it REALLY tightens up.  Not sure why/how/and how to stop it.  

PM: 1.5 on the TM to test out my IT band strap I dug out of storage.  I forgot I had it.  It is supposed to support it so it doesn't act so violently across the knee.  I am not sure it helped.  I need more test data.

I decided to hit the trails for a whopping 2 miler.  I ran on Deer Fence out and back from Providence Canyon.  It was worth the 20 mins of driving to run for 18 mins.  I did decide to walk on the trail for another mile after the run just to make it more worth it.  My mental state thanks me.  I wore my IT strap but it was still very tight after 2 miles. - 250' Vert for the running

AM: Drove up to Providence Canyon again and this time went south 1 mile then back.  The leg was still ok, so I went another .5 mile before calling it quits.  It was a great morning to be on the trails. 315' Vert

PM: Quick 2 miles after work.  I think I should have only gone 1.5 as the leg was pretty inflamed by the end.

Deer Fence

I couldn't resist hitting the trail again today, if only for a little bit.  I ran 1.5 miles out then headed back.  Things felt good except for the downhills.  I was feeling fast today.  Sub 8 pace!  Once back to the car, I walked for a bit then talked myself into another .5.  Things were pretty sore and tight, but I made it.  Progress is so slow, but at least I am improving slightly.  

T- 26:50 (7:40) 500' Vert

PM: Found a break in the day for a bike ride.  Spring has been long awaited and despite the wind was a great day for a ride.  Things felt great with no issues with the injury during or after the ride.  Looks like I have a great cross-training option now. 

T-36:00 (19.1 mph) 11.5 miles (Count as 3.5 crosstrain)

** Weekly summary 22 miles (186 mins) 1065' Vert
