Today I did a golf course loop, just took things kind of easy. Left leg is giving me some problems still, nothing real bad just want to be careful at this point. I did 25 min on bowflex, upper body and 200 crunches.

I could tell the leg wasgoing to do better right from the start today, things felt alot better today. The didnot flare up until mile 4 but I was able to control it more than it controled me today. So I will keep useing the roller each day and ice to see if things will calm down more. I think we should be good to go by SGM time.

For todays run I went  up over Harry's Hill into Salem  and back home. I felt pretty good until mile 8 and the left leg I.T. Band flared up again, really sore today. Not sure what to do I will keep iceing and rolling on the big blue roller. It was a nice morning and still a great dispite the I.T. Band discomfort.
