Did 7.2 miles then  6 x 1/6 mile repeats in a quiet nearby neighborhood.  Averaged 48 seconds per rep and rested (walked around) for 50 seconds in between each rep.

Cooled down for half a mile.  

I listened to a podcast at work today that is probably of interest for most runners/triathletes. The main topics are injuries, improving form/technique, fixing muscle imbalances and weight lifting/crossfit.  The discussion is between Rich Roll an ultra distance athlete and Brian Mackenzie a crossfit instructor.  The podcast is here.
