     Got signed up for Boston this morning. I guess I lucked out and signed up around 9:30 AM so I missed the morning problems with the web sight but still got in before the race filled up. My son in law is getting married in Pennsylvania 2 days before the marathon. It's about a 4 hour drive to Boston from there so I figured this would be a great opportunity to run Boston since I would be that close.

     When I helped a friend pack out his elk last Saturday, I was packing a load up some steep terrain and felt a tweak in my hamstring [the same one that was bothering me before the marathon]. I was feeling fit and good and was hoofing it up the hill pretty good and it happened right near the end. The next day I ran 10 miles and it felt fine but I went pheasant hunting afterward and it got sore with all the walking. It was still sore Sun. and Mon. so I took Mon. off. Then I ran 5 miles today and it felt fine until the last 1/4 mile.

     Decided to give the hamstring another break today and just road the Mt bike 20 miles.

     Ran 5 miles at 8:27 pace. My hamstring felt good all the way. It was tempting to go farther but I resisted and kept it short and easy.
