AM - 30 minutes very easy jog with strides and drills. Puttered on over to Salida's brand new track and turf field during the 2 hour window in which it's open to the hoi polloi (6-8 AM). Better than no access at all but not by much. Easy jog on track followed by drills and strides on the field. Right hammie still sticking somewhat, but it felt like the drills were helpful. It's the downhill stuff that bothers it the most, so the flat nature of this shakeout was just what was needed. Cool and crisp conditions.
PM - 30 minutes, Red Rock Canyon trails. Back in the Springs after yet another 2 hour drive. Waited as long as practical before starting the run. Right hammie/glute/whatever didn't do so well with the driving, stiff and tight. While it wasn't the first time I've run on these trails, I had conveniently forgotten that the area isn't flat and more specifically is a foothill-gradual slope situation, so the first half of the run was mostly climbing at various gradients before getting it all back. Not the greastest thing for the leg but I needed to do something to loosen it up a bit. Monsoon conditions held off although there were some threatening looking clouds.
