Short run from the hotel in the morning. Not measured. Hamstring seems to be ok so I will remove the injury flag but still be cautious for awhile.

Richmond Festival. Dancing on and off most of the day. 10am-5pm. 7:30-11:45pm. Included plus, dbd, rounds, Capitol Squares demo, and an hour of dancing in the pool.

Clearing splits off my watch 11/25/09 and I have 12:05 for today. No idea what it was.. Maybe I went running again?

At Richmond Festival. (Held in Williamsburg) It started yesterday but I did not go down until today arriving around 4pm, arriving just in time for the dinner break at 5. Danced the evening session. 7:30 - 11:30pm

At B&B 7:30-9:30.

Beautiful day so I had to get out for something. Over to Burke Lake to see how the hamstring was feeling. Jogged slow along the exercise trail. Still sore so afraid to try anything faster.

6 holes at Burke Lake. 176g Shark. Driving well but putting was off. Two were dead center but an inch too low. Finished at 1 under.

At Boomerangs 7:30-9:30. May have done a little too much on the hamstring earlier today as it was giving me twinges again while dancing.

At Rounds...By George. 7:30-9:30pm. Hamstring still sore so careful on the twirls and twists.

PVTC 1 Hour Racewalk. Falls Church HS, 9am. Plan was to go out in 9 min 1600m pace and see how long I could hold the pace. That would get me 10.67k. Wanted to get at least 10.4k which is better than the 10011m last month and 10.2k last year. Started ok but got a caution on the second lap and slowed a bit, then on the 3rd mile did something to my right hamstring. Thought I might have to drop out. Managed to stretch it out some and continue but lost a minute and it bothered me for the rest of the race. Could not get back to the 9 minute pace and did 9:20 for the rest of the hour. Finished first with 10304m in the hour. Not the 10.4 I wanted but better than I thought I could manage after the 3rd mile.

400m [1600m] splits. 2:10.7, 2:19.3, 2:16.5, 2:17.1 [9:03.6], 2:15.4, 2:15.8, 2:16.3, 2:15.9 (9:03.4], 2:27.1, 2:51.4, 2:26.6, 2:21.3 [10:06.5], 2:19.5, 2:17.6, 2:19.8, 2:21.1 [9:17.9], 2:18.0, 2:19.5, 2:20.9, 2:21.0 [9:19.4], 2:19.3, 2:20.0, 2:21.3, 2:16.6 [9:17.1], 2:14.5, (1:37.7)

Warmup on the track before the race.

Some walking warmup to see if I have stretched enough.

Cut the grass in the back yard before the post racewalk stomach pains set int.

Autumn Leaves Ball. 3-5:30pm. Falls Church HS. Round dancing with Bev. Luckily I was here so missed seeing the end of the Redskins loss.
