Running Woes

I set out on a 5 mile run last night in the drizzle, but things did not go well. I was .9 miles down the road when my husband drove by on his way home from work. I ended up catching a ride home. My right hamstring was locked up so tight I could barely walk. This is not good.

I did some stretching when I got home, and rolled it out on the foam roller. I soaked in a hot bath later, too.

I'm going to try a bike ride tonight and see how that goes. Now is not the time for an injury. I need to build up my mileage a little more so I'm ready to start marathon training in a few weeks.

Right now the plan is to just finish in Pittsburgh, then reevaluate. I would lose no sleep in pulling out of Black Bear to save myself for marathon training. I'll keep you updated.
