IT Band friction syndrome, Achilles tendonitis, or a stress fracture? They're all fun, but if you could choose only one.

ITBS...mine was fairly simple to fix.
ITBS!
I've had achilles tendonitis for the past 11 months. ITBS is maybe 3 weeks
ITBS all you need to do is heat your knee and you're ready to go
i have had achilles tendonitis for a couple weeks...is that 11 month situation typical?!
ITBS, then stress fracture, then achilles. The stress fracture really wouldn't be that bad, because even though it lasts a decent amount of time, it's a pretty solid bet that it'll heal if you stay off of it for the proper duration. I hate the open ended injuries like achilles tendinitis because you never know how long it's going to take to heal up.
Stress Fracture by far - it's clear what the issue is and a set amount of rest usually fixes it for you to return to normal training.
Achilles issues - I have had for four years and still able to train hard. NOt a fun injury, but still manage to run through it.
ITBS is a bitch - had this several times and you never know what or how it was caused. You try everything and nothing works. This is just plain annoying and so hard to fix.
These injuries are all different for everyone.
I personally think that Achilles Tendonitis would be the easiest to deal with.
