Well, I finally ran my first half marathon! Yes, I ran all 13.1 miles without stopping. My mother-in-law will be the first to point out that I didn't quite take 1st place, but I think 534 out of 1400 is pretty darn good. haha
I was also able to visit Bryce Canyon National Park for the first time. It was breathtaking!
5 things I learned about running a half at Bryce Canyon.
1) The race is down hill, but easy on the knees.
2) Very few Americans can be found in the park. It's almost like searching for wildlife. (I thought I needed to learn Spanish, but now I need to learn French.)
3) It is actually possible for someone to run a 5 minute mile. I ran a 10 minute mile, so I am of course not talking about myself. :)
4) I would consider anyone over the age of 60 and under 13 that is able to run a half, my hero.
5) The red rock is amazing! The views are awesome!
