Salt Lake City Half-Marathon 04.2012

I DID IT!  I ran the Salt Lake City Half Marathon.  My goal was to complete the race in 2 hours and 45 minutes.  I beat my goal!  I ran 13.1 miles in 2 hours and 21 minutes.  I have never felt a greater accomplishment in my life.  I worked so hard to train and to finish the race!  I did it.  Thank you to all my supporters, Nate, Madison, Katelynn, Dad (Ken), Jeff, Mom (Ranee), & my siblings.  It really helped me keep going to see you throughout the race and especially at the finish line.   I am hoping to run another half marathon in August.  It is called the Legacy Midnight Half-Marathon.  My goal is to run it in 2 hours.  If I finish in two hours, my medal will be flashing.  We get to run with glow sticks and glow jewelry.  I am really excited to do this race.  Thanks Dad for sticking with me and helping me to do this race.

I am not in any of these first few photos, but the is the start of the race, and there were a TON of people!  It was amazing.
 



About to cross the finish line!  YAY!
 

What an accomplishment!  I am not fond of running, but the feeling that I had after crossing the finish line totally made up for it.  :)
