We ran the Star Valley Half Marathon yesterday. It was a nice race. I was super excited because I haven't ran a half for quite a while. After nursing an injury all season I finally felt like I could run normal again so I was pretty happy. Cody got a PR and was happy about that. The race had a small town atmosphere. We knew several people running it including Sandra, Joe, & niece Natalie, Aunt Janice, and several people from here in Nibley. The race was very well organized and totally catered to the runners! I highly recommend it! We had to start out very early for Star Valley since we drove up the morning of the race. My niece Samantha was nice enough to spend the night at our house so our babies could sleep in their own beds and then my sister Tammy and her kids took care of our kids all day. Thanks to the Bensons and Samantha for taking good care of our kids! Above is the "before picture" of our group. And below, yeah I look trashed cause this was the last mile and I WAS! At this point I couldn't stop thinking about how nice it would be to cross that finish line!
And Cody after the race...

You might be wondering about this picture. Corbett insisted on me making him a shirt like our race shirts. He found a shirt similar and WOULD NOT LEAVE ME ALONE until I decorated it like our shirts. He's pretty happy about it. And then he kept striking the running pose for his picture?? I thought it was pretty funny and Cody just went with it!
