My goal was to run it in under an hour. Which I did. Just barely. My time was 58:26. By far not my best time, but I still achieved my goal. I was feeling good through the first 4.5 miles, then because we had to run on the left side of the road, my right IT band really started freaking out(in other words it felt like a stabbing knife that also has a sticky hinge). I was past mile five and still feeling really good aerobically. I knew it ended at the high school, so when I saw it I turned on the boost so I could end really well. Low and behold we still had to run a quarter mile around the track. My enthusiasm sank. Evan had come back to run with me then. What kind of brother won't carry their sister across the finish line? Oh, well. I did well enough. I hurt really bad the next 2 days since we just got in the car and drove home for 4 hours after the race.

Good job siblings! Looks fun and a little nippy. Doesn't it frustrate you that you consistently run and train for that kind of stuff and Evan just rolls out of bed that morning, runs, beats your time, and then back tracks to run the rest of the way with you? It's just not fair that he has that endurance built in him.
Congratulations! You always make me proud. For everyone's place and time - http://www.moabhalfmarathon.org/winter/winter.html
