That's how I roll

I have heard lots of other runners saying, "I swear by my foam roller!" I now know what they mean! I was on mine today and I did lots of swearing!

In honestly, the roller only really hurts on the ITB. I'm not sure if its just a tough place to roll, on the outside of the thigh, or if my ITBs just really need the attention. I tried the roller on my hamstrings, quads, and calves. That felt really pretty good.

I really wanted to run today. It was cool and sunny. I held off though. I think I'll try a short run next week. Even though my left ITB feels lots better, I know its not all better. The last thing I want to do is re-injure it.
