tired but a relatively easy run. Only a slight soreness in my knee. Pain in left shin no longer there

Physio is working. I'm feel so stupid not having gone in for physio sooner. I had assumed the worst thinking that the pain I experienced as a stress fracture. As a result my cowardice resulted in the shifting of weight from the left to right leg causing me to run bow legged. This resulted in a case of ITB syndrome. The pain I would experience after 20 minutes of running was a sharp stabbing pain that would grind me to a halt.

Heather worked on both issues, using active release therapy, a process known as, "stripping" heat therapy, ultrasound and basic streching and some ice.

I've had three sessions with her and I've been able to run longer with less pain. That is a good thing. My new shoes should be coming in soon enough. I feel like a caged bird not being able to run.

I'm tired but it's great to be back.
