Hello,
I have had an injury to my IT band from running and was advised to stay off it. I can cycle and swim still without any pain whatsoever, it is only during the run. I am on the maintenance plan at the moment before going to a level 1 Ironman plan on the 28th of June and I would like it fixed before then so i can ramp up the volume accordingly to avoid further injury.
The question I have is, is it ok to supplement the run legs in the plan with cycling or swimming either at the same intensity as described on the runs or at a zone 1/2 or should I be completing the time walking (which has no discomfort whatsoever)
Jason
