If you read my blog regularly you are probably sick and tired of listening to me talk about my hamstrings. After a week and a half rest/cross training I went for my long run today. I was not sure how it would go. I was prepared to cut the run short and walk it out if I was in pain. I am elated to report that I completed the 16 mile walk/run with no hamstring pain. The plan called for 14-16 miles. Of course this means 16 in my mind. I was tired but felt good at the end. It was humid.
Kathy and I planned to meet at the trail head at 6 a.m. to get the run in before the heat of the day. It was thundering and lightening at 6 so we pushed it out to 8. Luckily there was a cloud cover most of the time that kept it tolerable. Kathy is my running idol. She makes tough runs go by fast.
I am happy to be back on the plan.
