Easy Run
Raining then pouring rain to start thru 3 mi. Fast walked & did drills prior. Started fr HarrisY & when I started could feel issues w/right hamstring & my pace tells me that this injury has regressed & I may have a big problem (pace is almost 40 sec p mi slower & when this occurs its all injury related especially since it didn't feel like it). Only consolation was that it was pouring rain, deep puddles everywhere, my shoes got quickly soaked and felt like they were 10 lbs plus it was hard to run straight constantly dodging &/or sinking into deep puddles). Ran 1 loop in HarrisY parking lot which was a lake & then ran up Sharon & left on Sulkirk (mi 1 - this felt like I was running much faster & it was slow), then ran to back neighborhoods & then out on Park South down fr Archdale & ran back & left on Sulkirk (mi 2 - had to run in street because sidewalks were a mess), ran on Sulkirk & detoured around & then back on Sulkirk & at 2.7 mi had to stop as very quick felt hot/uncomfortable (had to remove my singlet). Continued onto Rutherford & felt like all of the spring was gone fr my legs & then hung right on Sharon (and it stopped raining!) to Y & ran by car and tossed singlet and hat on car & looped up/back & then out & across to Elementary School to back parking lot running 2.5 laps around parking lot "track" (stopped at mi 5 again - started raining again, mi 5 felt terrible and right hamstring felt terrible). Then ran 2 laps around 220 yd track & then back into Y parking lot. My right hamstring feels like it has totally sapped the strength in my legs and the 9 min pace is reflective - have not felt this bad since last Sept.
