After like 12 hours in the car yesterday, we made it to Jacksonville Florida for an awesome opening night of the Jax 2014 Campus Outreach conference!!! Woke up this morning dark & early with Ciara and Kiersten and did 10 x (2 min hard + 1 min easy) with a 10 minute warm up and cool down throughout the city. This is my first time staying in a big city, and I am honestly just in awe! There are lights everywhere and it is so beautiful in a different way that I am so not used to. But I loved it. Awesome run

Day 3 of Jax! Man, I am absolutely in love with this conference. It is beyond amazing to be surrounded by like 600 other believers and to just be getting fed the gospel in every way possible in every moment. God is so at work in this city. 

45 minutes easy with Ciara. Took a few pitstops to take pictures of the lights and skyscrapers because I still am lowkey in awe of how cool it is to be running in a big city! Haha

Honestly the last thing I wanted to do this morning was get up and run. There was a big concert last night, with it being the last night of Jax 2014, and between the lack of sleep from that and just the (awesomely) exhausting nature of the conference in general I am just so worn out. But I'm so glad I did. Ciara and I had really awesome discussion about Jesus and sharing her faith with her family, it was really cool how God used that time that I thought I would hate for his glory. Ended up being a great run. Heading home in the afternoon :/

Kinda ended up foregoing my run today in favor of a New Years hike with the fam bam. Close enough right? Spent the day hiking 7 very strenuous miles of steeeeep incline to the Pinnacle! Always a good one. Thankful for that time with my family.

AM- Supposed to be a 60 minute progression run today but I had to stop at about 50 minutes to go to the bathroom, so it ended up being about 50 + a fast leting-my-frustration-out mile afterwards. Splits were 8:34/8:09/7:50/7:30/7:21/7:30, and then the last mile was 6:29. Felt fine, minus the bathroom break thing. Then I joined Nancy inside and lifted and did some core! Good to catch up with her.

PM- Twice around Buchanan loop for 4 miles easy. Legs a little tired from squatting earlier.
