    Ran 8 miles up by the reservoir again. There was a huge flock of sandhill cranes circling overhead that was so large and noisy that I could hear and see them for 75% of the run even when they weren't directly overhead. I like their sound. We have 4 of them that spend time in the fields around our house about every day. Kept the pace easy again at 8:01 AP.

     PM Rode 20 miles on my MT bike. I felt good and really hammered on this one. I thought I might beat my PR for this course but came in just short.

     After a 3 mile warmup I ran 5 miles of fartlec. 6x1/4 fast with 1/4 recovery. Then 3x1/2 with 1/4 recovery. I wanted to run about 6:00 minute pace on the faster intervals and couldn't believe it felt that hard. By the time I got to the 1/2s I couldn't even keep the pace at 6:00 and ran them a lot slower. I think I may have had some fatigue from Tuesday.
