MOAB HALF MARATHON

Wow-it has been forever since I have updated my blog. I have been out of town alot and things have been crazy and I haven't found the time. Anyway-A week ago from today myself, Perry and a bunch of his siblings, and our in-laws ran the moab half marathon and 5 mile. I ran the half and happened to have a really great race and was the first girl in with a time of 1:26:17. (6:35 pace) In spite of the horrible head wind I was very happy with my time and how I finished. The rest of the fam did very well too and it was neat to see everyone finish the race and accomplish the task at hand in spite of everything that has happened the past couple weeks. I know that for me this race had a much deeper meaning and it was just great to see everyone have a good time and finish strong. It was also great to spend time together. If there is one thing I have learned-it is that the Webb family is very strong and I think its great all of the support everyone has for each other... Anyway I had a good time and it was nice to see those siblings of Perry's that we don't get to see very much. Great job everyone!! Can't wait until next year when EVERYONE does the half marathon!!
The half-marathon crew (me, Brittany, Scott) -our crew will be much bigger next year Half Marathon and 5 mile crew...(JD, Perry, me, Chanel, Scott, Brittany, Mikael and Chelsey)

I love that my hubby did the 5 miler this year...Perry was really mad when he found out a couple months ago that someone signed him up for the race and no one was fessing up to who did it. We asked everyone in the family a million times if they did it and everyone said no....Finally the day before the race we were all sitting in the trailer when he said he knew who signed him up... We all asked "Who"? Then he got a big smirk and replied "I did"....What a nerd! I can't believe he had us all fooled-even me!

Hi Christi, This is Wendy using Alison's login. Wow! That is so awesome that you won that race. I did that race once without much training and totally messed up my knee. I guess I learned the hard way. How do you find time to train. DO you do it in that early morning and nights? I am curious what your workout scheudle is. Do you think you could e-mail me and tell me what you do? Of course I would never be at good as you but maybe I could get motivated to get in shape. Great job. I wish we could have been there to cheer you on:) My e-mail is wsperry_2000@yahoo.com
