Jaguar Joggers practice 

Did a few sprints with the team and went too hard - right hamstring strained. Hobbled a short cooldown.

Downtown Boise - 30:08

Slow jog at about 9:15/mile pace. Hamstring still bad. Any faster than that yanked on it pretty hard.

Really great race for the team. I took Sharif on a wrong turn for about 0.2 miles and felt bad about that but overall everybody did great.

P.M. - Greenbelt - 28:20

Had a few extra minutes downtown so did a quick run around BSU and on the greenbelt (what was open of it).
