Well lifting has been going really well. I did run into a bit of a snag last week though because last Sunday I tweak my Hamstring. No big deal it was better by tuesday night, but the rest of the week was shot becasue of karting the kids hear and there to Doctor, Dentist, and Eye dcotors so they can go to school. Not a huge deal for me to miss becuase I did have several good weeks of work-outs.  THta brings us today or really last night. My softball team was set to play our last games of the year in our league tournament. We won the first game. Between the first and the second we had several hours of waiting till the next one. This was good becuase my oldest had her pitching lesson which we needed to go to. We fly back fron that and the next game just started. I am there no more than two minutes and I am up to bat. Well I crushed one deep into right center and took a fast la around the bases. Next at bat an inning later and I hit it to the same place but this time a triple. Going to the last inning I hit another shot into Right Center. As I was rounding Second I hear this huge POP!! and down I go. I just blew out my hamstring. I could not believe it. I NEVER DID THAT BEFORE… EVER. and I ran track, played baseball and football and never did that…. As soon as I it happen I went down like a buffalo getting shot and then sliding in the dirt until a dead stop.

Well this morning my hamstring was swallow and as you could imagine very stiff. And because last week so messed up with getting the kids ready for school I misses and I was just schedule to miss this week because I am head to Milwaukee for Harley’s 105th Celebration. Now I got to ride a bike over 4 hrs. and walked around all week like a gimp not really giving my hammy good rest so I might be missing some time there after that. Not COOL at all. I was really closing in on some of my leg goals so this really sucks. At least I can still do some work with the upper body but when you have a hard time sitting let alone walking of moving lifting dosn’t look to promising. Well I guess we’ll se what happens and how fast I can recover from this. I have many things I need to start doing but need to get this healthy first.
