Well blogger's. I was really wanting to run Central Park every day I was in NYC for these two weeks so that I was conditioned for the Ogden Marathon. Well between mile 4-5 yesterday my left knee started acting up again and after the 5th mile I could not run on it anymore. I had Ice on it all night last night and could not sleep cause of the pain. Today at work I was limping everywhere which isn't easy going through the subways, up and down stairs while wearing steal toe boots. I have no clue what is wrong!!!!!!

Like I mentioned in the past, this happened to my right leg a few months ago but healed after a few weeks and I have not had a problem since. Well my right knee got injured 3 weeks ago so I backed off the running for 2 weeks trying to heal it. Guess it's either not healed or it's a deeper problem.  I google'd the crap out of what it could be today and I'm leaning towards this???  "Iliotibial Band Syndrome" any opinions or solutions?

 I did manage to at least walk the small loop around the park tonight after work. :)
