Moab Half Marathon

This weekend some of my family went to Moab to run the half marathon. The weather was nice and it was an enjoyable race... or so I thought...
These are direct quotes from family members who ran.

"I'm not running again for 10 years..."

"I've never been in more pain in my whole life..."
"I hate you and I'm never running again..."
"that was harder than child birth..."


Here are some pictures from our little adventure :)

waiting for the runners to finish


Just about to cross the finish line. I think I'm giving a thumbs up, not quite sure...

Jill, Kevin, Carolyn, and Garrett happy to be done with the race.


Car seat buddies - Abby & Halle.


We took a little detour through Arches.
