Running and the Moab Half

For Allen, March means March Madness. For me, March means the Moab half Marathon. I I have run it 3 times and and gone down to watch on other time. It could be my favorite race of all time. It is beautiful and we run right by the Colorado River. This year Allen is running too. It is his first half marathon. The most he has run is 6 miles so it is going to be a big day tomorrow.

I love running so much! Teaching has put a little bit of a damper on my running schedule. I think that is why I like summer so much because I run a lot. I love getting distracted in my thoughts on a long run. I love looking and talking to other runners in races. I have never had music in a race and I have run about 6 half marathons, 5 full marathons, 3 10ks and way too many 5Ks to count. Tomorrow will be exciting. One more musicless half to add to the list!

Below are just a couple of pictures of the Moab Half during my college years.
