| AM - 6 hilly miles before church this morning. Thought my pace was faster but it would appear that the strength in the left hamstring is not really there yet. A bit painful to start but manageable for most of the run. 2000 meters of indoor rowing afterwards.
PM - yoga.

| AM - 4.25 miles with Dan and Finn on the Milton trail - colder and the dirt road was full of puddles from the rains yesterday. Hamstring was a bit better today - could have run futher but Dan was not feeling well. 2000 meters of indoor rowing afterwards.
PM - 2 miles on the treadmill followed by a yoga session after my workday.

| AM - 5.25 miles from Dan's house with Finn on the horsetrail roads. Slow first mile but warmed into a better paee - hamstring was tender to begin, but it seems some strength is returning to the tendon. 2000 meters of indoor rowing afterwards.

| AM - 5.25 miles with Dan and Finn on the golf course. Slower paced today, a little more discomfort in the hamstring, though it is significantly hilly with some sharp ups and downs to aggravate it. 2000 meters of indoor rowing afterward.
PM - lunchtime yoga

| AM - 5 miles on the trail early with Dan and Finn - very dark with no moon and the trails were a little wet from some light rain overnight. Not a very good run - hamstring and achilles were uncomfortable. 2000 meters of indoor rowing afterward.
PM - yoga at lunchtime and then 2 "barefoot" miles on the treadmill during a thunderstorm after work - power went out briefly during the run. I really wish I could sustain barefoot running without injury - it is really nice to run with no hamstring discomfort due to the difference in gait from running with shoes. Experience has been that I end up with injuries such as stress fractures in my feet running barefoot. I am doing it now only a couple times per week and short distances. Maybe I can gradually build up my bones and tendons and muscles with this gradual approach over time.

| AM - 5.25 miles with the guys and the dogs on the trail. Cold and very windy. Terrible run for me with the hamstring.
