Odd running moment of the year
I did a nice easy run today on the Virginia Tech golf course in a t-shirt and half tights on a nice 50 degree day. This would be totally normal if I wasn’t running through snow.

Genuinely
Feeling like absolute shit after a hard workout is probably the most fulfilling feeling that I have ever experienced.

Real talk
You know you’re running enough when you can look in the mirror and think, even briefly, “Damn why am I not a model?.”

Late Night Ice
This is not referring to Smirnoff or anything. I just took an ice bath in my school’s cold tub…naked. Booyah!

Middle Distance Runners do it better
We’re fast but not too fast. We can go long if we need to. But we always go hard ;)

Did you ever...
Get to that point in your running where you realize you are so much stronger than you used to be? It happens to me all the time.

You know the feeling
after you finish a workout and you ran it well? Or after a good week/2 weeks/ month of training? Where you worked hard, and you know you’re getting better? Also, you know the feeling you get after you hit a personal best, or are at least happy with yourself after a race? Well I’ve had the first two recently. Gonna get the third on Friday
