Half Marathon

So this last weekend I ran my first Half Marathon!  I've always wanted to run one, and I finally did it!  I ran it with  my sister Annie-in Moab, Utah.  The weather was BEAUTIFUL!  The course was long-especially the last 2 miles.  But, we made it-thanks to the ipod, power gel, gatorade along the way, and Annie-who encouraged me to keep running when I was tempted to walk.

One of the greatest parts of the race was during the last mile (the hardest)-My mom was cheering for us on the sidelines, and then about 1/4 mile later my sisters Kristen and Whitney were cheering us on, and at the finish line Dad and Nathan were there!  They all provided great moral support :)

After the race, we had a picnic and drove around Arches National Park.  Here we are standing under "Delicate Arch".  It was so fun to all be together for the day.
