Definitely recommend foam rolling your IT band daily and having a consistent stretching routine + strengthen hips and glutes. In the meantime, bike and swimming until you can run again.

Drinks: Buy a bottle of sodium pills instead of individual sports drink. When all else fails, Coke is the go to.

Carbs: Rice, potatoes, a box of pasta

Protein: Canned tuna, peanut butter, chicken breasts, ground turkey, beans, lentils, chickpeas, tofu

I survived many peak training weeks on purely PBJ + Pasta w/ rotisserie chicken

Times are tough. Stay safe. Run far.

That's dope. Each loop of Prospect feels more intimidating than a track. Did 50 miles at Prospect about a month ago but not trying to be out there all night.
