Canal banks - 23:00

Ran right at twilight. Body a little sore from a harder run yesterday and a couple of hours of yard work in Garden Valley and then in Boise. Felt pretty good though. 5 x 20 sec pickups in last half of run.

1 mile warmup; 21 minute tempo run; 1 mile warmdown

In the rain at Borah track. Tempo run at 6:16/mile pace. Right hamstring went out at 21 minutes (was going to run 25 min tempo). Had to walk for a few minutes then hobble back home. Maybe I should have seen this one coming. 

20 minutes of core and stretching before work

Jogged about 3 minutes but it was clear hammy is jacked. Clearly a result of the disc issue. Spasms and cramps have been out of control lately. Did some yard work, walked about a mile and did 10 minutes of easy core.
