 I ran leaning a little forward with a toe strike the first 7 to 8 miles, then my IT band seemed irritated (if I am diagnosing a fairly new discomfort properly...) so I eased back and coasted a little more flat footed, or even heel-toe.  I think that my lower legs tense up a little when I'm running on my toes (toe-heel-toe) - I'll need to work on this.

I did walk barefoot yesterday for a few miles (family walk) and two of my daughters joined me in this - Sierra (7 yr old) the whole time and Nikell (2 yr old who loves shoes) for little stints when she wasn't in the wagon...

Where do you feel the ITB pain? I'm just curious as I'm not really familiar with it?

Just below the knee cap on the outside of the leg. My wife has it often... this site explains it well - http://www.chirunning.com/shop/pages.php?tab=r&pageid=18&id=343
