greater expectations

So I always get IT Band syndrome when it is cold outside. I am usually fine when I am indoors, but once I am outside for a long period of time, it really acts up. I noticed it happening last year as well. I missed a few winter races due to this. The summer months I do not have as big of problem. I do strength exercises, foam roll and ice it. 

Anyone know what is up with it? COULD it be the weather? or is that just a silly thing to say?
