Easy 10 in the cold.  It was ~40 degrees today.  It feels like fall in Logan already.

Easy miles home.  I didn't feel good at all today and really had to fight to complete this run.  The pace was slow and I sure felt it.  Oh well, its in the bank.

I was out exploring out on the Logan wetlands (west of the Landfill) and had an encounter with a crow.  This is the second time in as many weeks that a crow (likely the same one since it was in the same location) came after me.  It would circle around and fly right at my head from behind.  It would practically land on my head squaking before circling around again.  The second time it happened today, I did some karate / kung-fu thing with my hands to protect myself while screaming at it.  It was freaky.  I quickly decided to arm myself with a rock and wait for it again.  It wisely held its distance so I had target practice with rocks.  I missed, but it finally left me alone.  Stay away from the crows.

Long Run - 

Today's long run was 21.5 miles in BSF canyon.  We joined up with the ATK running group for free food and rides to the top.  Well, near the top as we started at mile 4 of the course then up to the start then back down.  We ran some at 7 some at 6 and some in-between.  We even hammered up the big hill for no good reason at all.  Good fun run.  

T-2:2x:xx (not exactly sure since I forgot to start the watch after a drink break or two).  (6:4x ave)
