I woke up freakin early because Barnes talked me into doing my first half marthon. I woke up at 4:00 am so i could get down to provo and catch the bus that was taking everyone up the canyon for the half marathon. It was crazy down there.. I've never done anything like this. I got talked into it because Barnes said he wasn't going to race it and that he would run it as a training run and stick with me the whole way. Barnes is the best coach ever :)  He helped me keep a good steady pace the whole way.. and of course we sped up the last 3 miles. We averaged 6:46 min. miles and finished in 1:28:57  I think by I was about the 7th girl to finish (first in my division) and about 45th place overall... i think 
Yay!!! My First Half Marathon !!!!!

I of course got a delicious breakfast and a two and half hour nap in afterwards :)

Wow, Very nice job!!! I ran the Provo Half today as well, it's a great course and a good one for your first half. Nice work!! I see that you are new to the blog, WELCOME!!! If this was your first half and you raced, you should mark your post as a race. Then it will keep track of your races vs. your training runs. Gotta show off those speedy times, VERY IMPRESSIVE first half marathon. You are a fast little thing. Congratulations!!!
