What ever it takes!

A little bit out of it today, I started out thinking it would just be an elliptical sort of day but then after 20 minutes I got bored and went down to the track, 31 laps for a total of 5 miles.  The last 4 laps were a little bit faster cause I thought someone was going to pass me.  They didn't.

Have you noticed that unless you can run a 2:30/2:50W marathon no one visits your blog anymore.  Seems like the blog has changed, I know my perspective of the blog has changed since I started but I thought that was just me.

10 minutes on the elliptical, 2.?? miles on the treadmill until it died on me, then I went down to the track and ran 24 laps for a total of 6 miles running.  Finished the last lap with a nice sprint.

I finally saw a doctor about my hamstring, it only took me 9 months.  Anyway, he told me that it seems I have a pretty severe tear in my one of my (technical word) hamstring muscles.  He seems to think it will require surgery to fix it.  I'm a little up in the air about that because it's obviously getting better on it's own since I can actually kind of run again so the question is at this point what would put me out longer, surgery or natures course.  I suppose I'll go get an MRI someday, I just hate the whole doctor thing.
 

I woke up thinking this might be the last chance I have to drive my Camaro this year, bad mistake, I made it about 200' out of my driveway before getting it completely stuck on a flat surface.  I spent the next 45 minutes digging, and spinning my tires to no avail.  I finally worked up the nerve to wake up my wife at 5:15 to come push me home with her car.  I'll never hear the end of it.  "I told you that car was a stupid idea!"  "We live in Utah what do you expect"

So by the time I made it to work in the good ol' Mazda I wasn't in the mood for running so 45 minutes on the elliptical.

Felt like garbage this morning but I had to get my 4 miles in for a total of 1000 2013 treadmill miles.  I know, pretty sad when my only stat worth mentioning is treadmill running.  I looked back when I actually had a good running year and only had 700 treadmill miles.
