| 5 miles easy at Sugarhouse Park. Went up to watch the 3A, 4A, and 5A boys and girls State XC meet. Some pretty fast running going on. Went running on the course pathways after the races were over and while the traffic was all jammed up with cars and buses. Hamstring is tolerable, but still hurting. I really can't push anything right now. I'll probably be back in PT for a while and then rest this thing after Snow Canyon, if not before. |

| 5 miles at 5:05 a.m. Very slow. About 10 min. pace or so. Up Skyline to the gate and back via Loma Vista and Upland loops. No problem early, but worsened some throughout the last 2 or 3 miles or so. Tolerable pain, but can't push it at all. PT thinks I need some serious time off, but I think I should be able to run through some of this if I can sense it's improving some. I'll see after an easy run at Snow Canyon. November may be a wash. |

| 10 miles at 9:00 a.m. in 1:33:00, 9:18 pace. Rained the entire run. We picked the absolute worst time of day to go. It was raining lightly at first and by the time we got up the Smelter Road hills it was really coming down. I'm really slowing Tina down right now, but she doesn't seem to mind too much. She's running really well right now and I'm still struggling with this hamstring. I felt good for the first couple of miles and then was hurting for 6. The last couple it seemed to loosen up. I'll keep trying the every other day thing again this week, cycling on the off days, stretching, and icing. |
