My wife Alesia (a Physical Therapist) just took a continued ed course on running over the weekend. The course was geared toward therapists and covered topics such as running mechanics, shoes, injuries, treatments, etc.
One thing she found was a potential cause of some of my IT band issues. In several of my race (running) photos, I'm dropping my left hip while on my right foot. She thinks this could be the root cause of the problems that I developed back in May this year......and, she has some exercises/drills for me to strengthen those muscle groups to see if we can correct it. I have been doing a lot of stretching, hip exercises, foam roller, with a lot of improvement, but still not 100%. More details as we go along.
