Go Far!

This weekend Tyler and I participated in the Fargo 10K and 1/2 Marathon events. It had been planned since last summer, but our training wasn't super intense. . .meaning that we were both a bit hesitant to actually do the races--since it was the longest distance either of us has ever run at one time. It had been a beautiful week--until the day of the race. It was raining, which actually made it easier to run as it helped us stay cool.

The results:

Judy's 10K (6.2miles): Finished in 1hr 13 min. and `10 seconds. That is 11:47 a mile. I finished 1768 out of 2666 runners. I am very happy with those results.

Tyler's 1/2 Marathon (13.1 miles): Finished in 2 hr 27 min. and 15 seconds. That is 11:15 a mile. He finished 4077 out of 5365 runners. He ran the entire way!

The rest of the weekend was spent hanging out with family. The cousins got lots of time to spend with Grandma and Grandpa Nyhlen and we all got to sit and relax a bit! Thanks for being such good hosts this weekend, Rob and Nicole! We will probably run the race again next year! :-)
