So got dressed and put on my new altras.  Same make different g color. It's 930 am.  I start.  And the shoes don't feel as cushy. It's cold. Sun not out at top of 1100 north.  Here and there a peek. I run 9:06/9:39 and right into 8 at mp cutdown to it.  7:42/7:35/7:42 (big up hill) /7:25/7:18/7:27/7:37 hill can tell fatigued today/ 7:25.  Stopped at 4 mile mark took off sweat shirt put on music.  2.5 min.   Stopped at top of last uphill one minute.  Stopped 10 seconds when hamstring hurt right before the end of 8.   Then had to walk last mile with jog Bc hamstring too tight.  Went to bone dr for osteoporosis check.  And cmp and vit d dond.   Cmp showed significant dehydration.   Bun /creatinine ratio 37.7.  Supposed to be 10-20.  Waiting on vit d.  Take vit d so I assume good ?
