I was so excited to do this race. I had needed something to work towards to get me back in the swing of running since I took 5 months off after my last 1/2 marathon. It was so much fun and a great excuse to get a girls weekend out of it. We left friday afternoon and went to St. George. We of course had to stop and food load for our race the next day. We ate at Texas Roadhouse. Delicious!!!
We then drove up to Cedar City.....
Hollie, Pansy, and I in front of our hotel
Hollie made our shirts....love them
Us waiting at the start line....it was freezing.
This is me about to finish the race. I had nothing left. Running 10 miles down hill and losing over 2000 ft in elevation was not easy. I nearly crossed the finish line walking
I was so sad because I missed my goal of a half marathon by 13 seconds....I did it in 2 hours 13 seconds.
This is how I treated myself for finishing the race...a whole box of Buffalo Wild Wings salt and vinegar fries....and I did eat them all.
