We did it!!!
Well, we did it. We got up at 4:30 and ran the Deseret News 10K. We had a lot of fun. Our goal was just to finish and run the whole way. We were all a little nervous at first and had to wait in line for the porta- potty's. The race soon started and we were off. Ben and I were running together until he took off and left me behind. I ran with Jami and Danielle the rest of the way. We really did have fun, about mile 4 there were people to cheer us on, while helps keep yourself going and keeps you motivated. Once we turned onto the parade route it was a little crazy, people yelling and cheering, and people crossing the street in front of you. I got a little frustrated with them, because I didn't want to stop running for fear I may not start again. But we made it, by mile 5 I was pretty tiered. Ben of course finished first, followed by Jami and Danielle,and then me. We checked our times this morning and we didn't come in last so we are going to do it again next year, and hopefully improve our time. I'm glad that they decided to run with me, and hopefully we can talk more people to come next year. Unfortunately nobody was there to take our picture so we don't have any proof that we did it, except our sore muscles this morning.
