KT Tape is the bomb. As I have been back full swing into training, and hitting the pavement for runs over the last week with good strong ones, my nemesis, plantar fascitis is back. So, I busted out the KT tape. I got turned on to this miracle stuff about this time last year while having major shin splint issues while training for the Ogden Marathon. I am not sure how this stuff works, but it does. You can run through just about any pain with it. I am positive they tell you not to, but I do anyhow, and I love it. It doesn't just take the pain away, it helps heal the injury, so I am all over it. I did a strong solid 10 miler this morning, and immediately felt the pain while running. It eased up as the run went on, but I knew as soon as I got home that I would need to tape it. I had it taped the rest of the day and it is awesome! I love this stuff! So if you have any sports related pain, check it out! It comes with a booklet that you pick the injury, and it shows you how to put it on. I have now used it for IT band issues, shin splints, a sore ankle, and plantar fascitis and it worked on all of them. An athlete's best friend!
