I decided to do my run tonight instead of in the morning. I was hoping my IT Band would be more warmed-up and I might run better. It didn't help. It was 72 degrees and really windy when I started at 5:00pm. I ran 6.40 miles easy and ugly as my form was very poor.

It was cool and windy this morning. I re-taped my IT band before the run and that seemed to help. I ran 5.78 easy.

It was 50 degrees and breezy this morning. A nice day for a run. The new tape job on my IT Band seems to be working a bit better. My right quad hurt the first couple of miles. I think it has been over-compensating on the push-off to make up for the weakness in my left leg strength. I stopped at a park after a little over 5 miles and stretched the quads good and the rest of the run went better. I ran 10.61 miles, actually my longest run since the Pocatello marathon.

I am actually feeling more issues with loss of fitness than I am with the IT Band....
