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.
Pathetic run at the JRP. Knee seems fine til about mile 3 then all hell breaks loose. Strength training and eliptical only until this clears up. Zion's looks unlikely and Squaw Peak is now in jeopardy too.
Instinct Black 1 Miles: 4.00

Dang! What is up with your knee??? I am feeling for anyone with knee pain these days! Do you know what it is? I hope you are okay. At least you can run 4. I hope you will be able to run your races! I will be crossing my fingers for you!

Have you done or considered any PT/Rehab? Sean Wayne at Active Myotherapy (in Ogden unfortunatly) fixed Oreo and my IT band pain pretty quickly...

Amy, just a good ol case of ITBS. I've had it before, but never this long.
Bryce, I'm to the point where I'm considering it. I thought it would work itself out, but it hasn't yet so I'm open to any options at this point.

I am wondering if a steroid might help. It wouldn't hurt to check with a doc. Good luck man, that really blows.

I scheduled an ART session for today (Monday). Hoping to work out a gameplan to get this under control. Thanks for the all the advice guys.
