half marathon 13.1

 

Here we go again! On my list of 25 before 25 I had put that I wanted to run another Half Marathon by my next birthday. I have been avoiding this one. After the full Marathon last year I decided I was pretty much done with running forever, I felt like I did my time! However, I really like the goal of training for something, so I put it on my list. Oh how quickly the mind forgets...

Ever since moving to Provo I have seen the excitement that surrounds the Provo Halloween Half Marathon. It sounded like the perfect half to do, I mean, there are costumes involved so obviously that makes it awesome! But I didn't want to do it alone, so I encouraged my friend Diana who has been killing it with her weight loss and running to do it with me. She was hesitant, but I know she will be amazing. I think she will probably pass me up because she is way ahead on her training than I am. I am excited to run another marathon, and to do with it someone who has become a dear friend.
