AF Canyon Half Marathon and 5k

Jonny (1:27:10), Melody and Evelyn (walked the 5k), Grandma, Mom, Dad, Amber, Cami, Jake, Drew, Julie (all 5k)

I didn't want to be left out of the fun at this race so I decided to walk the 5k. Well, turns out that is pretty boring and long. (I remember thinking that when I walked one when Julia was just a few weeks old.)  So we cut it short in hopes of making it in time to see Jonny run in. No chance. He was speedy.

I will let Jonny write about his half marathon when he finds the time and if he so desires. For now, suffice it to say that he rocked it. (And that he set a new half marathon PR and came in 1st in his age division. Yes, that is my man.)

Pony Express Days 5k

Jonny (18:37)

 I had been running with some of the scouts for a couple months and we wanted to run a 5k to top off the training. Some boys couldn't make it, most didn't want to, but Thom and his boy Noah, and Andrew came to represent troop 1251.

So I had a lofty goal of getting under 19mins as this was a downhill course. Started out fast and just like every year at the 1 mile marker, I got passed by this small, quick lady. I tried to hang on, knowing she was a speed demon. I came in at 18:37, a time I haven't seen since high school, but again aided by gravity. Felt good.

Lehi HS Basketball Fundraiser

Jonny (19:50)

 This race was a fundraiser for Jordan's basketball team. It was a nice morning and a great out and back course. It wasn't a huge turnout but enough people to make it a race.

I ran a 19:50 but found out later it was 3.05 miles so at that pace I still would have been over 20mins :( but I felt great.  Drew came in 2nd and he was flying as well.
