Funny that my 50 mile time is faster than my 50K. Guess that's what happens when your only 50K has over 11,000' of vertical ascent =)
Short-Term Running Goals:
Zion Traverse
Squaw Peak 50 Mile
Speedgoat 50K
Quest For King's
Wasatch 100
Long-Term Running Goals:
Just want to stay happy and healthy. Bring on whatever that may entail!
Personal:
I started running in April '09 and run to maintain some balance in my life. Apparently I have an addictive personality so I figure I should do something positive with it.
Didn't make my goal of 14 for the day. Things felt really good until about 3 miles in then my knee just progressively got worse, and finally came to the point where I knew I had to shut 'er down. Frustrating to say the least.
Instinct Black 2 Miles: 8.00

Dude, why now? What's going on? Do you think it could have anything to do with the combination of your Altra's and heel-striking (not sure if you still heel-strike)?

Seriously! I'm at a complete loss right now as to wth is going on. I've completely transitioned to a mid-foot strike now (the one positive thing to come out of the last 3 months), so I know it's not because of heel-striking. IT Band is still just too inflamed.
I'm not running at all this week but I'll work on getting fitness back on the eliptical. That's how I got over it two years ago so I'm hoping that works again.

Yikes! Be careful with that knee. I am not a fan of knees right now! At least you were able to get 8 in! yay!

Injuries suck! Hang in there it will come around.
