Easy run on the TM. Right hamstring is bugging again, rolled my leg on the foam roller but didn't seem to help. Hopefully nothing to serious. Just got to get though 2 more weeks of hard stuff then the taper begins!

Take care of that hamstring. You are ready for a great SGM this year. A little TLC for the hamstring won't set you back a bit.

Thanks Scott! Just get a little scared. Its the same hammy that I tore 2 years ago. So for me if there is any tweak in it I get freaked out.

I totally get that especially at a time when you want to be on your "A" game for preparations. Every once in a while it's been helpful for me to have my running buddies remind me that a day or two of taking it easy is better than a blow up. The truth is you are in fantastic shape with a great base. It's not going to take much to tune your engine for a great race.

Right now I'm planning on running with you and Riley on the Saturday evening when he gets back from his trip.

Ben, Alta would've been great therapy for that hammy ;-)

Scott, glad to hear you'll likely be joining us. It's been too long since we've seen you.

Yeah, you guys are just licking your chops to put the hurt on me :-) Fresh meat!

Scott whatever bro! You are actually saying that about us! You have been destroying it this year, this by far will be the funnest STG yet! That will be awesome glad to hear we will get one long in with each other.
