Did my out and back run up towards Pine Valley. Felt pretty good going up and ran pick-ups on the way down.

5 miles this morning easy. Very wet and snowing. Felt pretty good. 1 mile slow run around Worthen Park before running with Clyde and Dustin. 9 mile loop from the park down to the river trail and up and over Formaster Ridge and back to Worthen Park. We just cruised along most the way, but I started having major IT band issues about mile 4 so we stopped and I stretched, which help a little. Then after we went over Formaster Ridge and started picking-up the pace the side of my knee started getting tighter and tighter. I thought I should have taken it easy but I didn't and just ran through the initial pain. By the time we got back to the park and ran a 1/2 mile cool-down I was cramping-up pretty bad. When we stopped I started feeling the sharp pain on the side of my knee and realized I really Jacked-Up my IT Band. It's now 10:50 pm and I can hardly walk because of the pain and just general knee weakness. I'm so stressed this is going to screw-up my training. I'm planning on messaging, icing, and anti-inflammatory. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Went out for a slow short jog just to see how much better the knee felt when running on it.

It is still feeling pretty weak and discomfort during running. But no pain like before. When I put my hand over the side of my knee and move it I can still feel the IT Band "pop" over the side of the knee joint. When walking around I feel just fine and don't feel any discomfort.

I've been massaging it like mad and icing it like mad. I think I'm going to go ahead and purchase the supplements Sasha suggested.

I'm planning on getting out and tring to get another short jog in tonight.
