google ITBS and stretch and you'll find lots of stuff... some people use a foam roller on the thigh area as well. Don't forget to rotate out the old broken down shoes & use the correct ones for your stride (go to a real running store). Also try to stay off highly cambered roads (don't run on the slant) and limit one directional track work (warm up and cool down in the 'wrong' direction, well to the outside, off the lanes if possible).

massage & accupuncture can help really severe cases, but prevention is more important than cure.

good luck, -Rita
