I'm A Runner

In January I participated in a 5K in St. George, UT. Today I finished the Thanksgiving Point Half Marathon in Lehi, UT. In June I will run the Utah Valley, Marathon. In August, the Park City Marathon. In September, the Top of Utah Marathon in Logan, UT and in October I will run the St. George, UT Marathon for the fourth time.

Yes, running has officially commenced for the year.

I'm sore, I'm exhausted...but I'm excited. Its that adrenaline that shoots throw the veins that make all the many, many miles worth it. People say I'm crazy, and some days I agree with them and I dread the next long run, but there is something indescribable about how you feel when you cross that finish line. It's incredible.

With my races alone this year I will run 121 miles. I've decided to track ALL the miles I run this year, training and races. Every one. I'm excited to see what I accomplish!

Let's see how far I go!
