I tooka few days off to see if my hamstring would get better. I went for a little 6 miler, and the paim is still there. I did'nt do any streching before I went out, but I did strech godd after I was done. It seems to bother me the most after I have been sitting and then get up to move around. It is pretty sore. I don't s any change from last week so I think this is going to take a while to heel. I may have to pull out of SGM. I really don't know what to do. Man I am starting to grt bummed. My total time today was 1:04:24, with an average pace 10:39, i was going pretty dang slow and the thing still bothered me.

My leg was really sore this morn when I got up, I tryed stretching it through the day so I could try and run this eve, so I went out when I got home from work and after a mile my leg hurt so bad I had to stop. I don;t know what to do, this is so frustrating, maybe I will just have to stop and let it heal. Man this is really starting to bum me out SGM is only a month away, what to do, what to do. I think maybe I will try a bike and see if I can keep some kind of fitness for the marathon. I don't know. Dang!!!!!

No running again today My left leg is so sore. I have diceded to take a week off and see if I notice a difference. I will try running on tues. I am going to run SGM even if I have to crawl across the finish line. I ran 2 races in Washington county this year so I would'nt have to go through the lottery. I trained all last winter in sub freezing temps. I guess this is why I am so bummed out about having this injury only a month out from the marathon. I quess no pain no gain. I will do my best to try and stay focused on getting my leg better.

Another day off from training. My leg is still on the sore side and I don't think  it can tolerate any running at this time. I am leavinmg for Las Vegas late Friday afternoon to help my daughter move. We will be coming back on Mon. I hope to resume running again on tues. Cross my finger's and my toes.
