PM 1 - 8x300m hill sprints, starting in 65 and cutting to 59.

PM 2 - 4 miles easy. Got buzzed by some large winged creature on the way home, felt its wings graze my chest and saw a flash in the headlamp. 60 sec surge after that to get clear of the woods... The owls in there are ferocious sometimes.

Tempo work at Padden. 6xmile with 1:00 rests. I visited the chiro this morning and got things worked on. I had a water ski fall a few weeks ago that wrenched my back, and I noticed the last couple workouts that I wasn't breathing well and wondered if I was hunching over in response to a sore neck. Anyway, things felt much better today, and this workout was vastly improved over last week. I went 5:21, 5:22, 5:18, 5:17, 5:18, 5:10, opening up just a little on the last one since I was feeling good. 

I have noticed incredible soreness in my left hammy now that I'm done. I'm hoping I didn't tweak something on the run. Time will tell.
