After my conditioning run last week my lower leg (below knee cap) began to sore. I've tried a few things but doesn't seem to help. (Yes I do stretch, walk cool down laps, eat fruits/veggies, and drink 8 glasses of H20 )

I don't drink crap. (Sodas, Coffee's that often) But I do enjoy Jamba Juice to the point it may be unhealthy. But when Winter comes around I'm back to Starbucks. =]

Take a hot bath with 2c. of dissolved Epsom salts. Soak for 30 minutes. The Epsom salts will help eliminate the lactic acid that forms on the muscles from over exertion.
Massage an analgesic cream into the sore muscles. I find the best cream for pain is “Blue Emu,” You can read more about this cream at http://www.blue-emu.com/
Dehydration can cause severe pain in the muscles, even though you think you are getting enough water most people are severely dehydrated. I recommend you drink purified water mixed with mineral water 50/50. This will replace the minerals that are exiting your body continuously.
I suggest that adults and children drink 40 ounces of water per 100 pounds of body weight every day. Realize that exercise, ambient temperature, and state of health affect the water needs of your body. One tip for athletes: it is healthier to drink a sports drink or water than fruit juice, soda, coffee, or milk during competition or active training periods.
500mg of calcium and magnesium, taken twice daily, can help with diminishing the pain.
