5 mile run

I decided to join the family and sign up for the Moab 5 mile race.

*Thank the lucky heavens I decided against the 1/2 marathon! *

My sister Abby and 5 of my cousins ran the 1/2 marathon, and my sister, brother and 3 other cousins ran the 5 mile race. I have never been to Moab before, but I LOVED the race! Running through the canyon was breathtaking! I was so busy looking around and taking in the fresh air, that I almost forgot we were running a race. Until I couldn't breath, then I was reminded. What a fun race! I hope to do the 1/2 marathon one of these years!

{Here are the 'lovely' photos taken throughout the race, no makeup = scary!}

Here's the cheer section

Here's our group of runners! (surrounded by a million paper water cups)

Meg, Jamie, Abby, Nicole, Chad, me, Steph

Erin, Tyler, Whit, Kramer, Shawn

My family all stayed in a nice condo together.

Here's my dad teasing the girls.

He put a pillow and a blanket in the tub and then brought them in to show them where they'd be sleeping. :) Paityn was all over it, Presley on the other hand was bugged!

After the race, we checked out Moab Main Street.

I'll see you next year Moab! Hopefully ready to kick some 1/2 marathon butt!
