Loaded up the whole family (4 people total) and travelled to the Olympic Oval this morning. Everyone ran including Andy who had to be bribed with a chicken sandwich after. Ran into Steve Ashbaker at the end - it's been a while. Had a nice conversation about child rearing and how the Ashbaker kids should go to Alta High. Especially if they can run.

PM: Experimental 4.25 mile run. So I've had this chronically achy and tight right hamstring and left hip for months which is really messing with my running in every way possible. Today I did about a half hour of foam rolling and then went for an easy run. It really helped the hamstring, less so the hip but the hip was a little better. I think I need to figure out a way to do it 30 minutes a day. Might have to invest in one for my classroom.
