The BB's did our own South Jordan Half Marathon this morning. 18 of us showed up. We started at Bingham and headed down 2200 W. to 9800 So. and headed west all the way up and through a neighborhood then back down to 4000 W. and headed South to 11800 So. and headed east to 2700 W. and back to 11400 So. then up to 2200 W. and finished back at Bingham. This was a pretty tough course. Lots of uphill, some down and lots of flat. My hubby was our water boy. He met us every 3 miles with water and that made it nice to not have to carry any. I ran with Julie and Angela most of the time and then they got a little ahead of me. Peggy, Amy, Greg and Mike led the pack until the end and Julie and Angela passed them. I was so happy for Julie. She needed that boost of confidence. We definately had a negative split. Our first few miles weren't super speedy but we sped up as we went. I guess a progressive tempo. My time was 1:44:40. Right about an 8:00 average. I feel this would be a good doubler so I feel like I should be able to St. George in 3:30 or less:) Thanks Cheryl for planning the race. You're awesome:)
I did about 1 1/2 mile warm up and 1/2 mile cool down. Didn't clock it.
