After a long hard week last week I was ready to get back into the groove this week. Went out into the Knolls and looped through Bloomington Hills before finishing up River Road. I felt o.k at best. Just kind of sloppy in form. But I hope to get out everyday this week and start kind of working into whatever shape I can get in with this hamstring. It was sore this morning... so as you can see after not running all last week that isn't the answer to getting it better. I need a good steam roller to work it over every now and again.

Ran out to Flying J and then on the trail over to St. James then up River Road to Jedora. A pretty good little shake out as I'm still trying to get the body and mind on the same page. I'm having a problem with circulation. All day and at night in my sleep my arms and hands feel like they are going asleep. Not sure if it is diet or maybe from all the yard work or something completely different. Anyways it feels weird on a run because I don't know what to do with my arms as they feel completely out of sink.

Went on a loop out in the fields today. It was hot and muggy and that made the run kind of suck. I was uncomfortably warm and just wanted to get done faster so I'd increase the pace but then because I was working harder I was hotter and hence the cycle kept repeating its self over and over. Hammy was tight but runnable. After I was done I weight myself and was a year low at 154.5. Still around 6lbs fatter than last year at this time but way under the stress zone so that makes me feel good.

Went to the club run tonight. I almost didn't go and it would have been a shame to have missed it. Not that anything grad happened but there was a cool breeze and I seemed to feel good tonight so that made the run more enjoyable. We did the parkway loop and there was a good turnout with all the lads there from the PV cross team.

Did a labored 6 miles around the Knolls and out into the fields. I felt like garbage and never could work into a good stride. I need to stop running in this pair of Landreths. The still feel like they have some miles left but I hate the way they roll... it's as if it takes more energy to run in them compared to any other shoe I own. Anyways now I'm off to go golfing in Richfield and then spend the weekend in Torrey where we will bless our baby this weekend.
