A couple weeks ago Jared signed both of us up to run a half marathon down in Hurricane. The race happened to be on his birthday (April 24th) so we decided to spend most of the weekend down in southern Utah. We drove down Friday with some friends, and did a session at the St. George Temple - we loved that!
On Saturday we got up very early - around 5am - to run. Jared did really well and finished 11th in his division. I was happy with my time. I finished in better time than I anticipated. The race route was very scenic, and the sunrise was amazing! Overall, we both really enjoyed it. It was the first half marathon we've ever run - I don't think it will be our last.
Later that day we enjoyed some relaxing massages. We finished off the day with dessert with some of my family. Even though Jared is another year older,
he is still - most definitely - a kid at heart!
Had to include this picture of Jared as a little tyke - it's one of my favorites.
