I didn't realize that was today and I ran by the stadium right before 7 then again on my way back to car around 845 and it looked like a great turnout, so congrats on winning your age.

14 at zone 2, took almost 2.5 hours but it was a perfect morning for it. Doing the Montgomery half in 2 weeks since it's a pretty fun race so I'll start backing off mileage. First race since the injury last year and that excitement is starting to hit now.

Root canal went a little faster than expected so I got to sneak in 45 minutes zone 2 this afternoon.

7 yesterday, 11 today in Z2, 10:30ish pace. This is my first time dabbling in Z2 running, it is pretty neat getting done with a long(for me) run and feeling the same as when i started. Can actually relax and decompress a little.

Been sober 3 and didnt know about the sugar cravings, its terrible. Cheat days start with a gallon of blue bell now, try to just do that once every 4-6 weeks now though.

You guys are motivating, and you'll get it the next go around man. I get 3 days a week to run and 1 of those is with a stroller, but im hoping by September I'll be ready to take another shot at that 50k, and finish injury free this time. That stroller seems to get 10lbs heavier every week lol.
Core and IT stability today, 8 on trails tomorrow.

I've got a trail run Saturday and it looks like it's going to be around 18-20 with 20 mph winds, around a lake on top of that. Man I'm cold if its below 50 so it looks like the balaclava is going to get dusted off lol.

I've been wearing saucony peregrine but have been asking around as well. Borrowed a pair of Salomons from a buddy and put a few miles on them. Lacing system was fantastic and it had much more grip on wet rocks than the peregrines did.

10 on trails yesterday, 7 street in this wonderful cold rain today, 4 very easy tomorrow. First double digit mile run since my ITB issue last year. Hopefully by July that long run is inching closer to 20, going to give a 50k another shot in October but actually train for it instead of winging it this time. The injury thing absolutely sucks, don't want to do that again.

Haven't posted in awhile, finally feel as good as I did pre injury now. Did 6 miles on trails yesterday and today, will do 4 or 5 on street tomorrow to give my legs a little rest from the climbs.

Update from 3 months ago: Took 45 days off running completely, did clamshells, banded side steps and diagonal steps daily. Started with super light band and worked up to medium, Started with heavy band today. Around the beginning of October I ran 1 mile 3 times a week and have been adding a little distance every week. Just did a 5.5 mile trail run Sunday and feel great, no pain during or after at all.
Thanks to everyone here for the tips, it seems like a break from running, stretching and some strength work was the key.
TLDR; Don't run through ITBS, rest, stretch, strengthen.

First time, long time on MB.
Thanks for the tip on this, looked into it when you brought it up, got in early and locked in some profit when it hit $4.
Here's to hoping EQ can do the same thing for us next.

Bookmarked, thanks man. Going to take probably until mid October off and do these several times a week.
Ill try to find some guides on how to come back correctly from injury as well as some appropriate training plans so this doesn't happen again.

I feel I've wasted 6 weeks and 700 bucks in copays. I do have resistance bands, will try anything. I don't have a reason to be dishonest with anyone, the only goal is to get back running. If that means not running for x amount of time, i will do that no issue.
I get 3 afternoons a week where someone watches my daughter, so pre injury i would run 10 one day, then 5 the other 2 days keeping me right at 20 mpw. Sometimes I would stretch that long day to 14 or 15, but time became an issue.
As far as the 160 HR goes, it's been like that since I started a couple years ago and I thought it was normal. I've got a buddy that I run with every blue moon and we will have conversations when we run and I'm able to talk pretty normal between 160-165. If that is a mistake, that's something that can be corrected pretty easily.

The only time I've been told to not run was the day I got the injection in bursa, told me to wait til the next day due to injection site being sore. Haven't seen ortho since i was referred to PT.
I was referred to a PT out in my nowhere town, where the guy i got assigned to is a student that should graduate end of next year. Im the first IT band patient hes had.
Usually the PT sessions are warm up, then I get a timer with stretches/exercises to do.
I've explained that sometimes I can go 3-4 miles with no issue sometimes, and then I have days where it's intense pain from the jump.
PT said that's strange, to do the therapy, try again and report back.

Both PT and ortho have been adamant i wouldn't have to rest, ortho gave me a couple injections and told me to keep running. PT has said the same, but something has got to give.

I told them about slower runs on flat surface being less painful and about the footstrike snafu, and they wanted me to test it out. Im coming up on the end of 6 weeks of PT though, so I just plan on doing the stretches 3x a week myself and taking a month or so off running. When it first started I took 2 weeks off but it may not have been enough.

Physical therapist told me to try adding some distance so I set out for 10, ended up doing 7 before the pain was a little too intense. Going to talk to them about it and take a few weeks/months off to heal up and focus on school and family i guess. I appreciate the tips and help from all you guys, I know almost nothing about running, just started doing it to deal with getting sober and not being able to for awhile seems daunting but oh well.

Yep. No background in running other than the army over a decade ago, don't know anyone that knows anything about running either. Been running 2 and a halfish years and never really have a plan other than just go until I can't. There's a running group about 30 minutes away that meets every Saturday, I think it may do some good to go link up with people that know what they are doing instead of just winging it.
The hardest part is dialing back when I know I could mentally keep going, but it's obviously a lesson I need to learn now.

Since April it's been hit and miss since I've been trying to recover from this mess.
Here lately it's been about 18-20 miles a week, 930-10 pace depending on how hot it is. I wear a chest strap and try to keep HR under 160 unless I'm doing speed work or have a route with hills.
Going into that big trail race in April, I went from 10-15 miles a week to 25-30 for 2 weeks then back to 15 for a month leading into it. Did not prepare correctly.
