ITBS again!

Again, for the second time in a row, my training for the Mumbai Marathon has hit the same road block. ITBS.
The only aspect that is better about the recurrence is that it has happened almost two months ahead of the race day giving me presentable time to get into some aggressive rehab to get back into shape.
I have deviated considerably from my original training program and hence will need to push the day of attempting my longest distance (peaking) by a week. The catch here is that the delay can not be by much as I need at least 25 days of tapering before my body completely recovers from the workout and am 100% for the race day.
ITBS can be a pain in the a** and you will agree if you have experienced anything similar yourself. My physiotherapist friend encouragingly tells me that there is always a silver lining to any such obstacle. Going by such encouragement, keeping the faith and continuing to believe that I will make the grade on 17th January 2010 and become a Marathon Man (rather Marathon Boy).
It is going to be quite an uphill task from here and will need all the good wishes and luck to make it happen.
God Bless
