Walking and running, that is. Again we went out early, to avoid the muggy heat. I did my 1 to 3 run / walk, this time 3.17 miles on the paved trails, in 40:11, for a pace of 12:41. That's slightly slower than two days ago, but still plenty fast enough to finish a marathon in six hours even with nature breaks.
No complaint from the injured right hamstrings today, or from anywhere else for that matter. No whining!
So the plan now is to run every other day, doing an easy 1 to 3 run/walk like this, but gradually increasing the distance. On the alternate days, or many of them, a nice bike ride will provide the cardio exercise that I need. Nearly every day, I will also do a set of hamstring stretches and resistance exercises designed to increase strength and resilience. That's the plan.
