Hello, I'm Kay!

Hello, Internet! As you can tell by my blog name, I'm Kay. As you can or can not tell by my blog name, I'm a collegiate runner. I'm currently a senior at the University of Tampa where I run cross country and track. I started running seriously when I was 14 years old and never looked back. I plan on using this blog to talk about the fun (and stress) filled life that being a college runner entails. 

To give everyone a better idea of who I am, here's some fun facts about me, both running and non running!

  • I'm a communication major with a minor in sport management
  • I race any distance from 400m to 6k, although I prefer the 1500m
  • My pre-race meal is always two chocolate rice cakes with peanut butter
  • I came to UT for the weather and cross country/track
  • I also enjoy hiking, hammocking and watching Netflix 
Generally I hate every picture ever taken of me mid-race, but I will share this one because it's one of my few favorites. 



It's from this past April when I ran the 1500m at the University of Florida. Bonus fact: I forgot my uniform and had to wear my roommate's after she ran the 3000m in 100 degree heat. It made for a funny story later.
