------edited to add---<br>
I did this in October<br>
when I ran across some Felt Covering at the Track,(to protect from Football Cleats )<br>
and caught my foot which ''torqued'' my hip,,,,like an idiot I finished the run, but it's been extremely sore ever since...

For what it's worth, when I injured my piriformis a couple of years ago I also injured the upper IT band where it connects to the hip. Could that be it? I needed 2 months of PT.
