I swam a mile at East Canyon Reservoir with some speedy swim types; including two 13 year old girls that were like little water gazelles! Not that I need to be humbled in the swim, but I was humbled.

Five miles on the treadmill while Heather ran outside.

Hey, look at that, seven miles. Almost like a normal run.  The hamstring pain flared up after about five miles and I stopped and massaged the attachment point at my knee and that helped a lot. I am now thinking that the root of the problem may be tightness around the calf and knee that is somehow tugging on the hamstring or putting pressure on the nerve.

The plan was to ride the bike this morning. But the rear tire was flat, which was a bummer because I changed the tire last night and I must have punctured the tube when I put it back on.  So I went to Steiner and swam a mile.

The plan was to swim in the morning at East Canyon. The reality was that a 4:30 am wake up was impossible with the boys being up all night!  I ran 5 miles on the treadmill.

I took the bike out for a spin, headed to Millcreek canyon.  Shortly before I got to the canyon, I noticed I was losing air in the rear tire. I got it pumped back up and made it home, but it was a drag to cut the ride short.  Covered 17.7 miles.

I pushed Luke in the baby jogger on Ye Olde Loope. He did great.
