13.1

Yesterday I ran my second half marathon and it was pretty great!

I ran the Provo River Trail Half Marathon and despite the fact that it was very unorganized, it was a good and beautiful route.  I ran it with Kim Strasburg, an old YW leader and friend, and I'm so glad she was nice enough to push me.  This one was slower than the one I did last year but I was able to go faster than I thought I would be able to go so that was awesome.  

It was also kinda funny because when we were up at the top waiting for the race to start, I saw someone in one of the Lone Peak Swimming sweatshirts I had when I was in high school.  Lo and behold it was my dear brother!  A friend from work convinced him to run it last minute, so without any training he whipped out eight-minute miles!  He went faster than I did and I trained.  Boys are so lucky.


Almost to the finish!

All four of us at the finish.  Apparently blue is the cool color to run it.


This is out of order but this is where I found my brother at the top.


And this is all of us before the race.
