Hi Jenn--just found your trip report and was reading some. Noticed you said that you were having some IT band problems. I had those a two years ago when I did my first marathon. I wore the IT band wraps on my legs and did the whole marathon pain-free!!! I also did a lot of stretching and would roll my leg back and forth over a tennis ball 2x a day....it hurts A LOT but it helps loosen it up!!

When are you heading down to WDW? We are leaving from Newark on Thursday night on Continental.

Too bad we never got to meet up at the park, I wish I still lived over there!!

Hey Laurie...yeah..I've been doing all that fun stuff and it seems to be working! I ran 6 miles without the wraps the other day and was pain free.

We're heading down Thursday morning on JetBlue..just couldn't pass up the price even though I usually used to fly Continental. Where are you guys staying?
