Ok so I ended up taking a couple of days off.  I went hunting with my Bros. Friday, and after My legs were real wack from all the walking and Sat. I will admit I was just lazy. But my goal for this week will beat least 5 days maybe 6 we will see how the hamstring feels.

I did no stretching before my run today, but after I did for about 10 min. My run felt ok my hamstring was a little on the sore side along with some discomfort in my hip. We will see what tomorrow will bring. My total time today was 54:21, I no a little slow but I wanted to take it easy so as not to stress the hamstring. I also did 25 min of upper body weight training to help keep the old core strong.

Very nice eve for a run, today I did down the river bottoms road and around the Bishop Storehouse, then up Senic Drive for a little uphill workout. My Hamstring was hardly an issue during my run today, however my back did cramp up a little the last 1.25 miles. My legs did feel a bit on the tired side but we mananged to run faster than yesterdays run. My hamstring is a little sore as I am blogging this, but by morn it seems to be a very minor issue. Total time today was 51:55. I also did about 30 min of core strenghtening with some weight training.

I did the river bottoms to gu corner run and back today, my legs felt a little on the wack side but not to bad. Hamstring feels ok during the run, but is a bother after. Feels good the next day so we will take what we can get for now. A bit cooler today looks like next week it is going to get more like winter temps. highs in the upper 30's. Yikes!!!! I don't like running in the tight's. To restrictive. besides old men look horriable in the silly things. My total time was 50:24. I did 200 crunches after my run.

Really an uncomfortable run today, my back seems to be a new problem as of late. It was really cramping bad today during my run. The hamstring was about the same as it has been. My back hurts on the same side that I am having my hamstring problem. I'm sure there related I just wish they would get better. My total time for the run today was 52:17.

Another beautiful day for running. I know this weather is'nt going to last much longer, so injoy it while it last's. Today I did the route of out to gu corner and back. My hamstring seem to be a little better today than yesterdays run. And my back seem to do alot better so hopefully we are headed in the right direction here. I just took it nice and easy again wanted to make sure I got in my 5 days of running for the week. I am thinking about going tomorrow we will see how we feel. My total time today was an even 52:00 min.  I also did 25 min of core and weight training.
