Grow in my enjoyment of running, regardless of pace/times 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! Favorite Blogs: |

| | 2 mile warm up, fartlek run, and a little over a mile cool down. The fartlek was 30 sec easy, 30 hard, 60 easy, 60 hard, 2 min easy, 2 hard, 5 easy, and then back down the ladder. 19 minutes total. Didn't feel great, I haven't really ran a workout of drastic pace-changing since outdoor track! Still getting back into things I guess!

| | I wanted this to be a recovery run between my fartlek and possibly hills tomorrow, but it ended up feeling like one of the hardest workouts of the summer. Just felt like I was going 2 miles an hour and it felt like it lasted hours when it was really only like 47 minutes...ever have those days? It was just bad bad bad. Not sure what went wrong.

| | 2 mile warm up, 10x60sec hill repeats with 2 minutes jog recovery, 1 mile cool down. These got me, I was definitely feeling the burn. I did them on the big hill of buchanan loop. But I never stopped or noticeably slowed so I am pretty happy with my efforts!

| | Did a little out and back through Western and down into Cullowhee a little bit! I actually purposefully waited until mid-day when it was hottest because I am worried about not being acclimated to Spartanburg when I move down for training on the 20th. But it ended up feeling fantastic, so I guess I'm not so worried. About a 7:50 pace I'd say.
Funny side note - at one point a post office car drove past me and the guy shouted out "oh hey, girl who runs everywhere!" I got a kick out of that haha.

| | Tempo workout today, once again in the heat of the day. I warmed up a loop on Western's XC course (1 loop is about a mile), then did my dynamics and tempo on the track. 4 miles, splits were 7:03/7:06/7:15/7:07, which I was pretty happy with. Doing tempos on the track is always SO challenging for me mentally. Definitely a lot of circles. But because of that, it's always so encouraging and motivating when I finally make it through the workout and can look back and know I didn't give in.
Full-body strength circuit (bodyweight) afterwards, then another XC loop for a cool down. Ice bath in the river after that!

| | Supposed to be a 6 mile run....ended up being a little less, and with 2 breaks. Not happy about that. Not because I was tired, but because what I ate at this restaraunt last night just made me feel so sick and my stomach felt really upset during most of the run. Had to stop twice to go to the bathroom. As far as the running goes, I actually felt really good! Legs felt great.
Doing a little hiking and swimming later, maybe that will compensate (at least mentally, if nothing else).
