Day 65: Hurt my Hamstring
I am so excited but I probably shouldn't be. Today I overslept and missed Track Date, but when I did get up I got dressed and went over to the track. Unfortunately they were cutting the grass and I couldn't stay because I'm allergic to freshly cut grass. I went to the Gym and just sat in the car for a few minutes debating if I was going to go. But I got myself together and walked in. I was still feeling pretty defeated about the whole weight gain thing, but I headed to the treadmill to get it in. I walked a half mile and then started jogging. I wanted to jog 2 full miles non-stop, but while I was at 2.25 miles in, something happened. Right below my left butt cheek but above my knee on the back side started hurting like I pulled something. I asked and found out what it was, it was my HAMSTRING. I hurt my HAMSTRING!!! Like seriously that is an athlete injury that serious athletes' get. Yeah, it didn't feel great because I started limping and couldn't jog anymore, but it's great to know that I've got athlete types of injuries.
By the way, I re-weighed myself and I was back at my previous weight, so the gain must have been a fluke. Tomorrow is Track Date and Hills all the way. At Track Date I'm getting in 2 miles jogging but a total of 4 miles and I am going to do at least 25 hills.
You know, I'm really starting to like this new life of exercise and better food choices. This is my new life and I refuse to engage in a sedentary lifestyle like before ever again.
