Spring Half Marathons

This spring I decided to sign up for two different half marathons. The first was in April. The Salt Lake City Half, it was a new route for this race so I wanted to try it out. A beautiful day and a good run and fun crowd.
The second was in May, and also a race I hadn't done before, even though part of the route was very familiar. The Vigor Big Cottonwood, ends about a mile and half from the bottom of Big Cottonwood Canyon, and runs on the bike trail for that after canyon section. It was a PR for me at 1:46, and I got to finish the last 2-3 miles with Stacy. She caught me at a point that I was not sure I was going to make a PR and we were able to push through the last section together. It was awesome. It was mostly foggy and damp until the end when it started to drizzle. Great day for a run.
 Nathan also ran the race with us, and finished in a down pour.
