Scott
In an attempt to avoid the hills I did loops at a local park. Right hamstring was tight but not really painful.

It's a busy time of year, no doubt about that. It sounds like your new office location is in a good spot, hopefully that trail will be calling your name a lot!

Brooks makes very good cold weather gear, some of the best I believe. I too train early in the a.m. You need good gear to make it comfortable.

I'd love it of we were invincible but alas we're not. About 4-5 months ago while running on a particularly hilly course I must have pulled my right hamstring. I co tongued to try and run but it hurt and I seemed to lack power in that leg which made running hills truly painful. I tried one session of deep tissue massage, rest and lots of foam roller but none of it resolved the problem. Finally decided I needed rest and am now trying a slow comeback.

Good call on the foam roller! You mention "return" is the hamstring the injury suffered?? I've probably crossed paths with you at Lake Pine at some point! ;)

Stay with it Scott. Most all of your runs should leave you feeling like you could do a lot more without difficulty. Keep your patience and it will pay off in the long term!

Good going Scott, not everyday is a red letter day running. On those days just turn off the watch, hit cruise control, and get the recovery miles your body is asking you for. You'll be burning up the roads soon enough, why not put a nice base in this Winter.

I know, I feel the same way sometimes when I am out on my Desert Floor run at dusk with no lamp... wonder if the mountain lion is sniffing around... creeps me out and I start running faster because I don't want to be dinner. Don't you guys have bears out there?

If we do I don't know about them. Where I run is on a trail in an urban area so probably no bears - have seen lots of squirrels and a few deer. I do know what you mean about running faster as I do the same.
