I too got the Nike plus and was running 5 times a week and getting back into pretty decent shape. But alas I got some itb inflammation that after 4 weeks I've been unable to shake. It's incredibly frustrating. Every time I test it I get about a half mile and the pain starts right on cue. Once that happens, it's a good 3 days to be pain free (resting, no running). I guess I'll wait a couple more weeks to try again. I had reached a point where I could hold a 7:45 mile for 6 miles but haven't been able to get that kind of a workout for a month now. I've had to resort to swimming but I'm not a good enough swimmer to get a good half hour workout. I'm dead in 10 minutes. I hate ITB syndrome, it's frustrated my fitness plans a few times in the past couple of years.
