| AM - 4 miles on the treadmill due to rain. I can run at a faster pace on the treadmill with the hamstring issue for some reason...still struggling to make real progress with it.

| AM - 3.25 miles on the trail with Dan. Slept in the guest room last night which has a tempurpedic matress and actually slept with a lot less discomfort on the sit-bone and it did not feel as painful when I ran this morning. I may try sleeping a few nights on that bed to see if my regular bed is causing so much compression of the tendon overnight that when I go to run in the morning it is so sore...
PM - 30 min Peloton indoor cycling ride. I have had the Peloton for a number of years and it tends to be one of my least favorite ways to workout - and as a result sometimes is just the "injury" cross trainer to help maintain fitness while recovering from injury. So, I did the workout - did not really enjoy it, but it did not cause any discomfort in the hamstring tendon either.

| AM - 5.25 miles with Dan and Finn from Dan's house. Much of this run is on the horsetrail roads which are faster than running on trails, but not as fast as running on roads. Slept in the tempurpedic bed again last night - and did not notice as much "relief" as the previous night, but aside from the initial mile where the tendon was a bit tight, wonky and uncomfortable, the rest of the run was decent with a pain level no higher than a 2. We ended up running a couple miles longer than I have been over the last several weeks and most of those miles were mid to low 8 min pace - so I felt good about the progress today.

| AM - 5 slow miles with Dan and Finn on the golf course - slept part of the night on my normal mattress which turned-out to not be good - so switched halfway through to the guest bed - which was better but I was much more sore today than the last couple of days.

| AM - 4.25 miles with Dan and Finn in the neighborhood - roads were wet and there was a light drizzle remnant of the overnight storms.

| AM - 4.25 miles with Dan and Finn on the Milton Trail - much colder as winter weather has returned. Hamstring is improving with a change in beds of all things...
