Utah Valley Half Marathon 2013

 

Very similar course to the Provo City Half, just starts further up Provo Canyon rather than up South Fork.  Enjoyed it today also!

 



Red Rock Relay 2013

Still lots of fun!

 

Provo City Half Marathon 2013

 

Really enjoyed this run.  Started up South Fork above Vivian Park and finished downtown Provo.  Downhills are sure funner than others.

 



SLC Half Marathon 2013

 

Ran the SLC Half Marathon this morning.  It rained the entire run, and it was in the 40's, so it was a cold run.  I enjoyed it none-the-less. This was 5 days after the bombing at the Boston Marathon, so there were definitely emotions involved with this run.  Sad that there has to be so much concern for safety at an event like this, but understandable at the moment.  Lots of policemen and a few bomb sniffing dogs.

I enjoyed the route, and hope to do it again sometime.

 

 



Shamrock Half Marathon 2013

Half Marathon #3 in 2013: Ran the Shamrock Half in Saratoga Springs.  It was a 'start and finish in the same spot' race, but somehow felt like it was all uphill.  That isn't necessarily a bad thing, just a bit  more challenging then others.  I enjoyed the morning.  This event is much smaller than most, so a little more alone time during the race.  Finished with a time of 1:56:48.





Dogtown Half Marathon 2013

Half Marathon #2 in 2013: Friday after work I ventured all by onesies to Saint George for the Washington City Dogtown Half Marathon. Pictures are not available due to me not having my usual favorite photographer. I did run it though, and quite enjoyed it. As usual, I wasn't expecting it to be an uphill course, and it's probably not fair to call it an uphill course, but it had its fair share of uphill stretches mixed in throughout the course, just enough to make it challenging. My times suffer when I'm required to push my body up hills. I finished in 1:52:36. My last 3 halfs have been in the Saint George area. It's hard to beat the scenery, and the weather is usually nice for winter months. If Zazoosh photography catches me looking good on the run (an unusual thing for me), I may buy the picture and post it.
