Canyonlands Half Marathon

Everyone after the race.  Scooter, Scott, Lori, Ali, Gabi, Jenny, Turk, Megan and I ran the half marathon while Ryan, Daphne, Michelle and Aaron went to breakfast.
We hiked to Delicate Arch the next morning which was really fun except I think all the runners were a little sore, I know I was.
Ryan and I at Delicate Arch with Daphne in the backpack.
I was so tired by the time I came into the finish.  I averaged about 9:30 through the canyon, but then there was still 2 more uphill miles to go, and I hit the wall and died.  It was so hard to run those 2 miles, but I still finished with a great time at 2 hours and 12 minutes.

After the race, we got a family picture.
We also went hiking in Negro Bill canyon, which is really pretty.
