My family (most of it) ran in the Salt Lake City 1/2 Marathon AGAIN this year! We had so much fun last year we decided to make it a yearly tradition. Maybe next year we can get my LAZY brothers and HUSBAND to do it!
Last year my goal was to finish, and I did. This year my goal was to run it in under an 11 minute mile pace.
The RESULT... 10:07 minute mile pace! so my official time was 2:12:39!!
I took 33 minutes off my time from last year, and that makes me smile!
Here I am getting my victory kiss
Here is our official FINISH ORDER picture... (I went from 5th to 1st this year)
Here are my sisters. We ran the first 12 miles together and then split at the last mile and it was every chick for themselves
We are already anticipating next year! My goal next year is a 9:15 mile pace... dream big right?

My wife just finished running a half-marathon in Illinois. It must be a mission thing because like James, I did not run with my wife either.
