My day started at 5:30 am as Hillary and I boarded one of the busses taking runners up Emigration Canyon to the start of the Freedom Half Marathon. It was a first for both of us. Hillary signed up a couple of weeks ago as she has wanted to do a Half Marathon for awhile. I signed up Friday when I felt bad that she was running it alone...
I finished 13.1 miles in 1 hour and 57 minutes and was very proud of myself! AND I'm so glad it further solidified that I will NEVER run a marathon!!!
The race ended at the State Capitol and I think I'm going to stick with team relays. That was a long run! I do have to say the highlight of the whole race was when the bus driver asked if Hillary and I were sisters and when I said I was her mother and turning 46 in a few weeks, she responded that I was very "well preserved" for my age. Ha!!
