Summary:
woke up around 11 so i didn't get to run in the morning. i stretched, did core, and lifted in the morning and ran around 8PM. my hamstring didn't hurt, but it felt tight. easy running is fine but i think doing a harder effort would hurt it a lot because i would have to extend my stride more.

stretched in the morning before going to class. we did the sprinter version of golf courses today, which is ironically all on roads. it felt surprisingly easy considering this is the longest and probably fastest i've run since early may. alec and i did core afterwards.

stretched in the morning. lifted and did core before running. i showed all the sprinters my core routine. i think its a pretty solid routine and it will help a lot of everyone sticks with it. my hamstring hurt a little bit towards the end of the run, but not that bad overall.

Summary:
had to go home for an eye doctor appointment. i took it easy today because my hamstring hurt more than usual after running yesterday. running 5 miles may have been a little ambitious. i was going to take today off, but i decided to go easy instead. if its still a problem tonight/tomorrow, i'll take tomorrow off instead. i stretched before running, did core work and lifting afterwards, and mowed the lawn for my dad as well.

stretched before running. felt great. just cruised through the run. aerobically, i feel like i can run a lot more mileage, but i'm holding myself back until i feel 100% confident that my hamstring can handle it. it felt fine on the run, but it hurt afterwards.

stretched in the morning. did core work after running. ran a lady and part of a trail with alec. my hamstring felt pretty tight after running. I think i'm not stretching it enough before running. i do all of my stretches in the morning and I think i will need to start doing a few right before running to reduce any pain/soreness i might have.

Summary:
stretched in the morning, before running, and after running. lifted and did core before running. felt fine on the run. i did strides for the first time afterwards and my hamstring was fairly tight and was clicking a little bit, although not to the same extent as last year. it was pretty discouraging because i was hoping to start plyometrics next week to build leg muscle, but that was contingent on my hamstring being able to handle strides. i'll do a few more this week and see what happens.

Summary:
stretched in the morning. my hamstring was really sore when i woke up this morning and didn't get any better throughout the day. it feels strained. i was contemplating not running, but i thought i might as well give it a try. running actually didn't hurt it too much; it actually seemed more comfortable than walking. i did core after running and i iced my hamstring as well.

Summary:
stretched in the morning. lifted and did core before running. ran with a big group of the sprinters today. my hamstring was still sore today and my ankle hurt as well. i think i twisted while running. fortunately, both weren't too much of a hindrance. i might take tomorrow off if my hamstring continues to bother me. this is probably a generous estimate of mileage since we were going closer to 8:30 pace for parts of the run.

Summary:
stretched in the morning. lifted and did core before running. i will be doing a little more mileage this week and will hopefully hit 30 for the week. my hamstring didn't feel that tight on the run, which was encouraging. the last half of the run was much faster than the first, but it wasn't a problem. i tried strides after the run and although my hamstring was fine, the tendon in my knee was clicking again. this happened last year as well. i'm not sure what the problem is. i will talk to curt tomorrow to see what he thinks. i'm doing everything right, so its frustrating to have things like this hold me back.

Summary:
stretched in the morning. my hamstring didn't hurt like the last time i did strides. i ran on the indoor track with alec because it was really windy and there was a tornado warning. my hamstring hurt a bit, but not much. i saw the trainer after the run and they said my knee clicking is probably just due to hamstring tightness. they recommended the usual heating, stretching, and icing. this time, i will ice both my hamstring and knee tendons. i will go in early a few times a week to get ultrasounding on my hamstring

Summary:
stretched, lifted, and heated my hamstring before running. i had intended to do strides today, but i thought it might be better to put them off today and attempt a set of plyometrics tomorrow. my hamstring felt better after heating it, but the effect wore off pretty quickly while running. i still felt pretty good, so i kept a brisk pace.

i spent most of the day at the HHMI poster symposium today since i had to present in the morning. i stretched after it was over. I felt really tired on my run. my legs were shot, probably from standing up for 3+ hours. i still managed to get through the run, but i felt exhausted afterward. on the brightside, my hamstring did not hurt while running but was tight after finishing.

Summary:
stretched before running. ran a lady and some 800 loops with james. felt much better than yesterday. i got a solid 9 hours of sleep last night and that really helped. i did strides after running and my hamstring felt fine, but my knee was still clicking. i'm hoping that as my hamstring gets better, my knee will stop clicking. it looks like that is the last thing holding me back from getting back to normal.

Summary:
stretched before practice. lifted and did core before running. we did a one mile warm up, some stretching, and then a fartlek type workout. the workout was 3 minutes on, 3 minutes off, 2 minutes on, 2 minutes off, 1 minute on, and 1 minute off on the chill 800 loop. the goal was to be around 6 minute pace for the intervals. i was able to do this workout pretty easily, but some of the other sprinters had a lot of difficulty. i did the first interval in 2:40 when it should have been in 3:00, but it felt fine and controlled. its been a while since i have gone faster than easy pace. my knee was clicking when i went uphill, but my hamstring wasn't really an issue. i cooled down three miles with james and ended with daisy. i iced my knee after running. i think the problem is that the tendons connecting my hamstring to my knee are inflamed, so i need to find ways to reduce inflammation in that area to hopefully get my knee back to normal. i also did a second set of core before going to bed. i've reached a plateau of how much one set of core work is going to help me, so i'm upping the workload a little bit.

Summary:
stretched in the morning. i had to go to Penn again today to collect samples for my research. it was about 3-4 miles of walking. we lifted and did core before running. ran most of the run with alec. finished up with some plyometrics: 100 yards of high knees, a-skips, lunges, and butt kicks. i didn't want to do frogs since those are the most likely to hurt my hamstring and i'm just starting out. my knee didn't click and my hamstring felt fine. my legs were really sore afterward. i have a lot of work to do.

Summary:
stretched in the morning. i was busy all day with lab and class, so I had to run really quickly before the Spectrum. I would have gone longer, but i was short on time. i felt mostly fine, although my hamstrings are really sore. thankfully, both are sore, so its from the plyometrics not from a bad hamstring. i think its a good sign and hopefully doing these will strengthen my hamstring and reduce any chance of future injury.
