Advice I have received is .... - 5 to 7 days on an anti-inflammatory (I use advil) - Rest... or at least....Reduce distance per run and total mileage - Stretch Quads and Hamstrings (this seems to help quite a bit as tend to have tight quads and hamstrings) - Strengthen Quads - Avoid running downhill Good luck!

Just one question for you.. Why are your calories so low? For the amount of hard work you're doing, don't you want to keep some of that muscle? Just curious! Hey Travis,
