A very easy run this cold morning, it felt like January out there it was brutal. My legs were trashed from yesterday's late afternoon run, my legs were still feeling the affects from the mini tempo run and the extra miles... So I went really easy this morning and I will take it easy the rest of the week, I think I will do 4 miles tomorrow and then go 3 for Thursday and then just a couple on Friday if any at all and then hopefully I will be ready for the Strider's Half on Saturday. I have a little bit of twinge in my right hamstring but it didn't seem to bother me much when I ran although the pace was very sloooooow:) I will have to keep an eye on that the rest of the week and if I have to I will take Friday off just to make sure, it doesn't get worse. I also did my standard core strength training with the rubber ball and the push-ups alternating between sets of each...

Well, that's about it I guess I will see ya tomorrow.

Great job on the run yesterday and today. Man it was cold this morning, hopefully you didn't have wind also, it was blowing like crazy in SF so we stayed in bed.

I think you'll do great on Saturday, maybe a PR perhaps?
