60 mins elliptical, 20 mins stairmaster. I like the stairmaster because I feel like it works my butt, hams and calves a little more than elliptical (which is almost solely).

 3 rounds of 20x calf dips, 20xhamstring curls and 20xleg raises (all the crap that usually gets left out of my regular strength routine).

Easy miles at about 7:55-8:15 min/mile.

Still feeling the twinges in my hamstring and pull in my butt. Its not really pain, but its not really right either. Seems like the more I leave it alone, the better it is; the more stuff I try - particularly stretching, the more it complains.

Treadmill run; mostly 8:00 with 1.5%-2% incline

Butt twinge... hamstrings felt ok, but got some kind of weird leg-lock, that sort of took my leg out of my control. I think it originates in the sciatic nerve. Lots of piriformis stretching and tennis ball rolling in my future.

Easy miles. ABout 8:30 pace. Still feeling a tug in the ole butt, but its loosening up with some excruciating tennis-ball-to-the-glut action.
