        Try abstaining for a few days. It might make your thing feel better.

          On another subject. For you Ghost wearers out there - do you recall noticing any difference when they switched from the 9 to the 10? The Brooks Outlet store near us is having their twice-yearly sale, which features major discounts. But I think they will only have the 10. I have never moved past the 9, but pretty sure they can't be found anywhere anymore.

            yes, I think there is a difference but I like both. The 10 might feel slightly softer and maybe a touch lighter.  Haven't tried the 11 yet

              Samesies. And actually, I've heard awesome things about the new Brooks Levitate 2's, so I'm considering trying them this time.

               

               

              I ran 5.1

               

              My glute and hammy were on fire all weekend. I've decided to just run until one or both implode, since resting them has done exactly shit.

               

              I told my coach about it and he is having me do a couple different exercises, for both stretches and strength. This and this one but with the latter one, instead of the leg just staying straight up, you are trying to straighten it, then slowly releasing, and repeat repeat repeat. And the other leg isn't bent, it's straight on the ground. Not sure if you guys' is the same, but mine's been better after doing these.

               

              Also, since we talk food a lot, I made these for tonight, and I'm really excited (they are DELICIOUS).

                  Of course the concerning factor is slight changes in fit, with potentially unexpected consequences. And everyone's foot is different, so you'll never know until you try it. And run in them for a while. And this will be an all-sales-final kind of deal, so I guess I'll just have to take my chances if the price is right.

                    Agreed. As with all things, if it ain't broke, don't break it.

                        Agreed. The thought occurred to me which is why I didn't roll today.

                         

                        It's been 3 weeks with the roller and about 9 weeks with this issue in my ass. It hasn't fixed it but it has made a difference in the tightness I typically have in other areas of my legs those first few miles.

                          Hey Baboon, what do you think about the Adidas adizero sub2?  Supposed to be a racier version of the Adios.

                            Your use of inserting links is impressive, but have you figured out, or re-figured out as it were, how to post pics??

                              ...but with the latter one, instead of the leg just staying straight up, you are trying to straighten it...

                               

                              Extending the lower leg from that position is what causes me all of the grief. When doing so, I feel a tightness in my hamstring, hip or glute or all.
