     Ran 7 miles today. Felt better than I have lately but kept the pace easy until the last mile where I picked it up some. I could feel my hamstring burning a bit when I picked the pace up on the last mile and it ended up being sore all day Tues. 8:25 AP.

     Hamstring was still a little sore so I decided to take a bike ride instead of running. I went 15 miles on my mt bike while it was snowing lightly. About 1/2 of the ride was on snow. 

     Later on my wife and I drove up the canyon and went cross country skiing. It was snowing lightly the whole time and was  quite nice.

     Hamstring/glute still a little sore today so I just did a short easy run. I went 5 miles and felt a slight burn throughout the run but I haven't felt anything from it since the run. It seems odd that I'm having to deal with injuries now while I've barely been running. All I can figure is that it must have to do with some of the other activities I've been doing that my body isn't used to [snowmobiling, basketball, or skiing]. It all seemed to start 2 weeks ago after the snowmobiling weekend. 9:25 AP
