An Ironman is a 2.4 mile swim followed by 112 mile bike followed by a 26.2 mile run. Always. I started this blog to publish my race reports, but now it includes workout recaps, training updates and much more! I welcome your thoughts and comments and if you haven't yet ventured into the sport of triathlon, what are you waiting for??

Running and the Hamstring
Went for a nice, short run this morning. Well, I got lost on the trails, so it was a little longer than I had planned, but the conditions were just perfect for a run. The hamstring, however, is not doing so good. I can block out the pain, but I'm trying REALLY hard to NOT block it out. See, that's what got me here in the first place! I've always said, the pain was never really strong enough to get me to quit, but it shouldn't be there in the first place. The hills really don't feel good. (not that they ever felt good, even without the hamstring issue) I am starting to wonder if I will ever be able to recover from this.

Kind of class that incorporates strength and flexibility training.
If anyone ever invents a program like that, they will become millionaires.
