I know how you are feeling about running and taking Sept off for some recoup and re-love of running. What I usually do is add more trail runs to my routine, as well as hikes and walks with friends. That way I am still getting miles in, but they are not monotonous road miles, which can get old. I know you don't live in the mountains, but maybe just changing it up a bit and making it more fun is the answer (running some 5ks/with friends/on different terrain).

Your body will thank you and you will bounce back and be stronger than ever. Think of it this way, you could either take some time off and be as good as new in no time or keep chugging along towards what may turn out to be a tough and frustrating race. <br /><br />Sending you speedy healing wishes!!!Britt @ Chicago Runner Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15628838959053342745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-24844634529993604772012-09-05T19:16:46.518-06:002012-09-05T19:16:46.518-06:00Holy Moly look at your mileage!

Hamstrings can take a while to heal if you keep messing with them. August was a great month for you. Hood to Coast is a great experience and I am sure that taking care of Rocky was and still is a big job.
