     My hamstring felt good during and after the race Saturday. Sunday morning I had a new sore spot in the same hamstring. It was sore right up at my butt. This new sore spot is half way down to my knee. It was still sore yesterday so I took the day off. It felt better today but I decided not to run again And went 24 miles on my mt. bike.

     I decided to try a run today. I stayed pretty close to home so I could quit if I got any pain. It felt good to start but I started feeling a bit of tightness after about 2 miles so I called it quits for the day.

     Tried running again today but stayed close to home again so I could quit if I started getting any trouble out of my hamstring. Today I got to 5 miles and it wasn't sore but I decided to quit while I was ahead. Just kept the pace real easy. 8:31 AP.

     Was able to do 8 miles today and everything felt good. It was another nice day but it sounds like lots of rain and snow coming next week. I would have run the first dam run 5k this morning but I didn't want to risk my hamstring for it. It would have been nice weather.  8:03 AP.
