Personal:

 

I ran track and cross country  in high school. In 2016 I finished off my high school career running my first marathon, the Utah Valley Marathon. Sense then I've ran a few half marathons but haven't been running consistently. This summer I'm hoping to get back into running and PR at the St George Marathon this fall.

Happy Thanksgiving!

My whole family signed up for the Hurricane Hustle that raises money for Hurricane Sandy victims. It was a little cold when we first got there. I ran a mile warmup and did some stretches. I really wanted to push myself on this race and try to get my time in the 21's. I got a good start. I was close behind the main pack.  I felt really good during the race. But I didn't see the mile markers so I couldn't time myself really well. I kept a good pace though and made a  goal  to be the first female. I finished with a 22:30 which was disappointing but I was the first female finisher. Later Luis told me the course was longer so that's why the times weren't as good. After I ran the one mile with my little sister as a cool down. Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

Vicki--We don't know each other, but if I may make a comment or two. First--nicely done! I ran the race as well, and Luis is correct--the course is long (it was closer to 3.22 miles). And, you ran faster than a 7:30 pace. I was actually following you the last 2 miles, and my watch indicated a 6:59 pace for me. If it was an actual 5K, your time would be closer to 21:35 (+/-). So, you really did get your 5K time in the 21's.

Hey, thanks. I had a hard time measuring the distance. But it's encouraging to know that I was actually running close to the time I wanted. And Nice job, to you too.
