Half Marathon

Well, my half marathon is finally done! I ran the Salt Lake City half marathon on Saturday. It went really well. My main goal was to finish under 2 hours and 10 minutes, since that's what I did the last half marathon that I ran in (back in 2003). But I really wanted to finish under 2 hours. Today the official times came out and mine was just under 2 hours 3 minutes. I was pretty happy with it, but still bummed that I came so close to being under 2 hours. If only I hadn't stopped to go to the bathroom and had run just a little faster! Oh well! It was great to run with DaNae and Becky, my friend and my sister. I didn't get any pictures of the run, but DaNae's husband got one of all of us around mile 9, so you can check it out on her blog here and there are some from the company that took pictures below (they're small because I didn't actually buy them). Paul has been a great supporter during the whole training process and even woke Lauryn up and got her ready so they could drive up to Salt Lake and see me finish. I think I'm ready to try a marathon next, but probably not until after the next baby comes along (maybe 2010?)
