AM... 5 mile run (35:45, 7:09 pace). Back at it!!! Its been three weeks since I last ran and have been working hard at the rehab, strengthening my hamstrings and working on flexibility. This week will be very easy (so long as hamstring pain doesn't return) and the start of building toward regular training again.

AM... 5.8 mile run (39:43, 6:50 pace).  Out the door early.  Legs actually felt better than yesterday's run, with no hamstring pain.  Still need to be conservative and keep the pace and miles low for this first week back, but its encouraging to run back to back days with no pain.  Just need to keep at the flexibility and strength work.

6.800.000.000.000.000.000.006.80

PM... [E] 6.8 mile run (48:37, 7:07 pace).  Went out with Kyle after work and did Huntsman, Sugarhouse loop doing the long gradual hill all the way back.  It was around 101-102 when we left, so it wasn't a very pleasant run (I know--its nothing for the St. George boys).  Leg felt good the whole run, and got a good stretch with rope afterward.  Overall the run felt pretty hard--probably a function of being out of shape, running uphill, and the heat.

AM... [E] 5 mile run (35:12, 7:02 pace).  Didn't really feel all that great.  I know I'm not in good shape, but the heat yesterday really took a lot out of me.  My hamstring still feels fine though, and if I can get through the week without pain I'll try to jump up in distance a bit this weekend.

AM... [E] 7.2 mile run (49:50, 6:55 pace).  200W/Centerville/Orchard loop.  The loop has some rolling hills after the first 3 miles, so this was a good test to see how my hamstring would feel.  No problems, so the strength exercises, rehab and extra stretching must be doing the trick.  Stretch after, both static stretches and rope stretch.

AM... [E-M] 7.3 mile run (48:50, 6:41 pace). W Btfl/Jessie's Meadow/800W loop. Wanted to push pace a little harder than I have been since returning to running, but not kill myself. It was about 85 when I got out the door, so considering the pace and the heat, this run was a pretty good effort. Still no hamstring pain, but I'm being careful to stretch a lot. Also did 1x40 and 1x20 ball squats--body weight only. Good first week back to running, and with 12 weeks until St. George I may be able to throw enough together to run somewhat decent.
