Salt Lake Half

The Salt Lake City Half Marathon turned out really well! I can honestly say I had a lot of fun doing it. I was pretty nervous on the way there, but right when we pulled up and I saw all of the people I got so excited. There were over 10,000 people there! It was incredible to see so many people working towards the same goal.
They had a live band (well it was more of a christian choir) that got us pumped up. I had to wait like 5 minutes after it started to start running because of all of the people.

During the race there was this guy in his yard cooking a huge breakfast. He was frying bacon and eggs and you couldsmell it for a mile I swear. Everyone was so mad at him. I just had to laugh. Honestly, does he think thats going to make us stop running!? All in all, it was a great time! I am excited to run the Syracuse half on Memorial day! I think I found a hobbie I love.




Yeah I know I look nasty.
