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!

11ish miles with Mell! Not actually sure about the exact distance seeing as my watch died 1.85 miles in -__- but we guestimated pretty well based on the mileage of roads we knew, so we should have been right around 11, give or take a quarter mile. I'd say, based on feel, we probably averaged around 8:20. Felt really easy and really relaxing.

AM- 1.1 mile warm up. Workout of 2x1000, 800, 2x600, 800, 2x1000. It was pretty challenging, not gonna lie. But I think it went much better than I expected, at least mentally. I felt strong & motivated. Although, my right hamstring was bothering me sooo badly. Also, that was 4 hours ago and it still hurts to even walk. I'm worried about that.

PM- 8 miles on the bike. I was gonna do a 4 mile shakeout but I decided that probably wouldn't be a good idea considering my hammy - which by the way continued to hurt all day :( hopefully some ice tonight will treat it well and tomorrow will be fine!

6 miles easy. Went and saw the trainer and he gave me a compression sleeve and some ie bags. It hurt so badly for the first few miles, but definitely got better as I went. It felt so much better afterwards than before the run. Iced and stretched as well.

Treadmilled after work. I took the last 3 days off to let my hamstring heal. Hopefully it'll feel better this coming week. Kind of hurt during the run but nothing I couldn't deal with.
