SLC Half-Marathon

Yay! We finished the half.  It was a fast 48 hour trip to SLC, but a lot was accomplished in that short time. :) Steven was flying in from NM at the same time  I was flying out to SLC and he spent a fun filled weekend with the kids while I was running.  The half-marathon was definitely not easy! I finished 13.1 miles in 2 hours and 16 minutes.  I was pretty happy about that time, I was surprised at how much the elevation difference effected me! I had a lot of fun running with Adrienne! She has kept me very pumped up to run (thank you for the Runner's World subscription) :) My Mom, my friend Amie and Adrienne's family were there to cheer us on.  Thanks for being our cheerleaders. :)

Cause my feet are so pretty after I run. :) I had massive blisters and calluses that I am now trying to heal up.  Time for a pedicure it seems? 
My cool t-shirt. Was it worth it? Yeah, I think so. :)

That is awesome Ally! I'm so proud of you! Your poor feet. Maybe you should just plan another trip up here to get a pedicure from Etsko and then we can hang out since we didn't get to see much of each other at Heidi's wedding. But it was good to see you! Love ya!
