This is my friend Clay Smith he also ran the 1/2 marathon.
I did it! I finished the Salt Lake City Half Marathon! I beat my old time by 5 minutes for a time of 2:05:19! The weather was perfect, the race started at 7:00 AM with a temperature of about 45 degrees there were 4125 participants I ended up 1797th place. The course was pretty flat and fast with plenty of room on the road for all participants. The race started at the Olympic bridge over by the University of Utah and ended at the Gateway mall. It was a great feeling to run around the corner and see the finish line 200 yards ahead of me, this gave me a feeling of accomplishment to see tons of people there to cheer me on! At the end of the race it took me nearly 20 minutes to find Serena or should I say it took her 20 minutes to find me! This was a great opportunity to get ready for the Pocatello full Marathon! I have a lot of work to do before September 5th!
The Finish Line!
YEAH! We are so happy for you. What an amazing thing to be able to do. Good luck training for the full marathon!
