AM - 3.25 miles extremely easy on the trail - my right hamstring was sore from some non-running activity - work around the house and needed to take it easy today.

AM - total of 7.25 miles the majority of which was with the guys. It was Dan and Greg's birthday and so we did a run starting at the Starbucks so that when we finished up they could get their free drinks. :). Dan and Greg both have injuries so the run was light and short-ish. Darryl arrived early with me and we did about 3 miles together before meeting up with everyone. He's running a half next week in Roswell. My hamstring issue seems to have nearly resolved.
