Someone more knowledgeable than me should chime in, but last time I spoke to my physio a few months ago he strongly advised against directly rolling IT band. All the muscles around it are fair game but directly pressure on your IT band will hurt (a lot!) and may not actually yield much benefit.
Which roller did you go for? I've got the large orange Trigger Point one and it's very much a love/hate relationship.

Looks like a lovely run
In order news I bought a foam roller. Mainly for my back but also since I’ve been running it seemed like a good idea.
This thing is a piece of torture kit. I hardly dare roll my it band it’s going to cane
