Good news

Well, I have good news. Sunday I spent the day on the couch reading with a heating pad regimen. It worked. I went and bought new shoes and have started breaking them in. Saturday night, I could hardly walk 13 steps, Monday I was walking closer to normal. I think the wear and tear on my shoes caused IT band issues. I've been doing some stretches and taking it easy. I tried to run today for the first time and only did 20 minutes. The knee felt so much better. Thanks to everyone who has been asking!
