Personal:

I currently run for Wofford College in South Carolina, where I double major in biology and Spanish. I will be spending 5 months studying abroad in Chile in 2017. I love cookie dough a little too much and spend most of my free time outside or asleep (or both). Living & running to know Christ and to make Him known!

Easy 30 minutes with Breck and Ciara. 8:17 average. Basically a day off, and we needed it.

Our recruit tonight has been awesome, I really hope she comes here! I'm happy I got to be her host. Good day back on campus, although I don't know how I feel about classes starting back up tomorrow!

Good little workout today; I even wish it had been longer. 2 miles warm up, then we hit the track. It was 3 continuous sets of 90sec/60sec/30sec hard, with equal jog time inbetween. The 90 was supposed to be about 3k effort, and then the 60 and 30 just faster relatively. Averaged out to be about 6:40 pace for a little over 2.5 miles. The 3rd 90 seconds, after the 30 second rest, was challenging. Other than that, I felt good and probably would have been fine with one more set, or some 400's or something afterwards. 2 mile cool down.

Rather miserable outside so we went for our 5 easy on the treadmills instead. 8:06 pace. Weights afterwards. This is such a low mileage week it's crazy....taper taper taper.

Yayyy good workout today. 4x1600 with 2-3 minutes between each at a little faster than 5k PR pace. Coach Harris said 6:12 for me. I hit 6:11, 6:10, 6:09, and 6:04. I was really happy with how those got faster, and I was feeling really good. The first one felt like a brisk jog - honestly - I was hardly even tired. More effort to cut down the splits as they went on, but I still felt good physically and really focused throughout each lap. Glad to get a good productive workout in with conference in mind just around the corner.

Easy 7 through Converse Heights at 8:16 average. Legs were a little heavy, but regardless, today has been a pretty great Friday!

Explored some new territory in Spartanburg with Breck...probably not the safest but oh well. Also it was prom night tonight for the high school I guess, so every park or semi-pretty area we ran through was packed with groups taking pictures, which was fun to see. We ran into Alexandra 7 or 8 miles in and finished it out back to campus with her.

Reciprocal shout out to Sarah Sargent for shouting me out. Hahahaha kidding but really, shouts out for an awesome meet this weekend & for following me on instagram!
