O-Walk (Sprint) @ Tyler. Nice course, one ~45 sec. route choice error. Slow walking, although on mud part time and one really steep uphill, but leg seems fine in the evening after. (Stretched & iced well when finished.

Strength 6:00 [1]
2PM: Heat/Massage/Stretch+Eccentric (80%-arms * 10)/Ice
Pain: Noticed it a little bit on a morning (11am) walk with AJ. And then it wasn't as bad during this round of home-PT, as it had been - on previous days, (e.g. 2-7 days ago) it generally burned as I stretched it - today it didn't really burn as I stretched it. Although by the end of stretching I could feel it.
Need to get back to doing this more regularly... (1.5x yesterday and 1x the day before was poor...)

Strength 15:00 [3]
7AM: At PT (early so Angelica could run with Jackie). Did lots of stretches of hamstring, eccentric strength and concentrict strength bridging (lay on back with knees up, squeeze ball btwn knees, straighten from knees to shoulders raising hips.) Did 20x the bridge it hurt on 18x, but then I squeezed tigher and it didn't hurt on the last two.
11AM: Burning mildly while sitting - I kind of expect it to get worse for a day or two after PT.

Walking (Backwards, up 10%) 8:00 [1] 0.2 mi (39:59 / mi)
Backwards, up 10% grade on treadmill, at ~40min mile pace or something? I think walking downhill would be good as it's mostly eccentric hamstring - this was an attempt to emulate that but I don't think it's quite as good..
Note
Worked my tail off at the office (to write some C code for the first time in weeks), and didn't do much more stretch/strength. The good news is that the leg didn't get much worse after PT. Probably better.

Strength 15:00 [3]
Pain has been odd today. Sometimes feels worse than last two days, sometimes better.
Worse: more burning while stretching, and while walking, and once while sitting around 7PM.
Better: here at midnight after sitting for ~2 hours, it's fine. I think I may be sitting lopsided though...
9AM: H/M/S/I
1PM: Walk + H/M/S+E/I (E = Exercise: eccentric strength 8x 50% - felt more burning here than I recall...)
5:30PM: H/M/S/I
Worse: more burning while stretching, and while walking, and once while sitting around 7PM.

5:30PM: H/M/S/I
Walking 30:00 [1] 1.0 mi (30:00 / mi)
shoes: R-Heavy Winter Running Shoes
Super slow walking, some through the forest. As long as I go super slow, I don't think this causes re-injury, and it probably helps my non-hamstring muscles avoid turning into total mush.
Strength 5:00 [1]
Midn. - 1 last quick H/M/Stretch/I session.
Still hurts on stretching, but not bad otherwise.

Note
10:30AM: Thus far this morning, it's almost normal. No real continuous burn - but it does feel different from the other leg.
Strength 25:00 [1]
11AM: Stretching & effort at PT appt. Did 16-18 bridges before pain (vs. 7 a week ago). Still not great as feeling pain during exercise tends to be a sign that I overdid it and will pay for a few days (like last Wed. in PT...)
2 (or 3?) more sets of Heat/Massage/Stretch/Ice.
