Recline exercise bike - 20 minutes (6 miles) & 270 calories

Weights and core - 20 minutes

Treadmill - 20+ minutes

Feeling a lot better. The run on the treadmill averaged about 9:20 pace. I got down to 8:57 pace and felt a slight tightening of the hamstring. But overall, I felt great after taking 4 days off.

I got diagnosed with a hamstring strain, specifically on the part of the hamstring that connects to the knee. The replies from a couple of FRB bloggers were right on target. I got an order for physical therapy, which I may or may not use. I think the next week will include just a lot of easy running and some cross training.

Sorry to hear about your injury. Keep your head up and keep with the cross training. I'm sure you will lose only minimal fitness.

I'm in awe of your ripped quads on that picture.

Earl Corney? What an honor to hear from the "Tarrytown King of the Roads." When are you joining up on the blog?

The quads are airbrushed in that picture. Anyone who's seen me in real life knows I don't have any muscles.
