St George Half Marathon

I've spent the last few months training for my first half marathon (13.1 miles) and the race was Saturday. It was in St George so I went down with 5 others from my office. I finished 306th out of 1033 finishers with a time of 1:49:52. My goal was to run under 1:55, so I was pleased with the results. Hopefully this is the first of many more to come.

GO DAN!!!!!
That is fabulous! Tyler is training for one in the spring (and he loves his Garmin!) Me, I am still working on 5-10K distances, 13 miles just seems SO long! Anyway, I am glad you made your goal!
