A couple months back my little sister asked me if I wanted to start training to run a half marathon with her. It's one of those things on my bucket list so I agreed to it. Well, we decided we needed some motivation so last weekend on 9/11 we ran the Candlelighters 5K. I had no idea what to expect. I didn't expect that I would totally get sucked into it and love every moment but I did! I loved the hype, and the crowds of runners, I loved the competition and I loved the feeling of crossing the finish line! I had a runner's high all weekend long! I will definitely be doing another race soon!
The start and finish line:
Me and Snuff:
Where's Waldo? Can you find me?
Crossing the finish! Woohoo!
Official time 30:58, not bad for an old lady and her first race, haha!

You should come to Moab to do the Winter Sun 10k in December. It'll be my first race. :p
