Another gorgeous, cool evening.  By the time I left, baby was in bed and the rain was finished.  Looped around in a couple spots to look at the swollen creeks, and on the way back, felt left IT band pain, for the first time in years.  It woke me up a couple times overnight, and I limped around this morning till the ibuprophen kicked in.  What the?  I know I took my foot off the gas, but I didn't think I'd see problems from 6 years ago creep up on me...

Very weird about the IT band. No ideas for you but hope it works itself out.

Kam, how's it going? Still running or mainly mowing lawns with the kids?

Hey Russ,

Thanks for checking in. I'm still running a bit, but not much more than three times a week. It's weird, but my body is just telling me I need a break. Nothing has felt great since the marathon, so I'm just going to take it easy until something comes around that sounds appealing. I am planning on another Boston Marathon (and therefore, another qualifier) when you hit age 45. I better go catch up on your quest for the 50 miler.
