Nice day for a Halloween eveining run. Started off thinking doing another 3 miler, but by the time I got to the river bottoms my hamstring was feeling ok so I did my 5 mile loop, out to GU Corner and back. This run has a couple of small hills that are only about 400m long. I was able to handle them ok. I was almost to GU Corner and my Bro. Rambo Jr. drove by and waved gave me little boost up the hill. Hello Rambo!!! On the way back felt ok, the last 1.25 miles my hamstring was a little tired but did not hurt like before. Dan Folgalber's Nexus and U2's It's a Beautiful Day helped me forget the discomfort. I have ran with much worse pains. All in all it felt good to be down in the river bottoms again. My total time was 52:15 pace miles are as follows.
Mile 1. 9:39
2. 10:10
3. 10:11
4. 11:00 Hill
5. 10:08
I also did 25 min. of upper body weight training to work on the old core strenght.
