Blast the hamstring...

If you've known me for a while, you know I have long been susceptible to tweaking my left hamstring. I've felt this one coming on for days now, but I hoped if I ignored it, it would just go away. Alas, it is here. Tonight on the treadmill (oh yeah, that's probably a contributing factor because of the harsher pounding) it just didn't feel great at all. I pushed through four miles jogging and then did my last mile in a brisk walk to add to the tally. Now I'm lubed up with Icy Hot hopig to fend off a full blown pull so that I do not get behind on my goal. I'm on target for a good January and am hoping to even get ahead a bit in February. Keep my leg in your thoughts! Happy trails!

Stats -
Miles: 4.0 (plus a mile walk in cool down)
Time: 34:08 (average pace 8:31 per mile)
Location: 24 Hour Fitness, 3rd treadmill from the end
Feeling: Grrrrrrrr
