my right hamstring has just been killing me over the last several weeks. its the upper hamstring, right below the glute (i think). brutal! i think i started back too fast in the spring or something.

for a few weeks now, i've been getting up a little after 4am to run in the mornings. a switch flipped one day and instead of snoozing i just started getting up and heading out the door. makes it easier to spend time with the fam in the evenings. its not easy, and there are still days where i can't get up.

its very satisfying but the worst part is that i feel so hungry all day after running in the AM.
