Easy run around campus.  Testing the ITB.  No real pain, but definitely some significant stiffness and weakness.  I think it would have hurt if I would have gone longer, and it was sore after the run.  Not fun to deal with.  I hope it heals soon.

Short run today.  Wore my Cascadias even though I was just on the road around campus to see if it helped with the ITB issue, being a neutral shoe.  I don't know if it was the shoe, but I experienced less pain and stiffness than yesterday.  Still not right though.  We'll see what next week brings.

Easy run.  Same basic loop around campus.  Wore neutral shoes again.  Zero pain.  Zero stiffness.  Will take tomorrow off as usual, then see what I can manage next week.

Longest run in the last couple of weeks.  ITB was not happy, but not really bad either.  I had to stop and massage it a couple of times which really seemed to loosen things up and keep the pain and tightness at bay.  Other than that the running is feeling really good!

Five miles in the 8 inches of brand new powder.  It was actually enjoyable.  ITB issue was hardly noticeable.  Not sure whether that was due to the soft snow or what, but I welcomed it.  Run felt really good, and it was good to be able to get out two days in a row.

Easy run.  ITB was a little sore, but not too bad.  Will rest tomorrow.  Slowly but surely feeling stronger.
