On my way to meet the guys this morning a hit a pot hole with my car and snapped the rim. Pulled over to change the tire out and didn't have the jack in my car. So instead of stressing I just ran the long way back home. Ended up with a solid half marathon this morning. 

PM

Out and back on the canal rd. Canal is torn up right now. Will be better in a couple of weeks.

Riverdale Parkway out and back with Jason, Ken and Matty.

Weather was perfect again this morning, also the parkway is greening up very nicely.

Treadmill run today. Left hamstring is giving me fits. Feels really tight in the origin but hopefully some rolling and stretching will help loosen it a bit.
