3rd half-marathon

I ran my third half-marathon last weekend, in Eugene Oregon. The weather was perfect, and it was a beautiful riverside course, all through park paths! My time was 2 hours, 16 minutes.

 

Yesterday some friends of ours hosted a Turkey Trot 4 mile race. I finished mine in record timing for myself, just under 36 minutes. I am finally running less than 9-minute pace!

 

My husband and I are now planning to run the Red Rock Canyon marathon in Las Vegas, NV March 5th, 2011 (half marathon for me). Lots of great hills, and weather will be beautiful.

Silver Falls Trail Half Marathon

I did my seond half-marathon today, got the same time. Which is actually a great thing, since this one was much more difficult! Lots of hills, puddles, mud, even stairs! It was a beautiful trail race through a forest, creek, and several huge waterfalls.

 

Now I have done 2 half-marathons, and 2 sprint triathalons. I'm ready to do a full marathon next but not sure which one. Considering one in Southern NV in January, Salt Lake City in April, Newport OR in June. Or there is always Mesquite NV in 2 weeks, if I wanted to pack up my family and drive down there! I think I'll take a bit more time to train though.

 

Sorry I haven't been blogging much. I have been super busy! I work full-time from home now as an entrepeneur and I've been really focused on that, that raw foods and other natural stuff has kind of fallen by the wayside :(
