Halloween Half Marathon

I've always thought of myself as a "pretend runner" because I like to run, but then there are people like my husband who are built to run, born to run. While I can't say that I fall into either of those categories, I can say that I'm loving running right now!
Natalie is my wonderful running partner and we had a great run last Saturday morning in Provo Canyon. It was such a fun environment with everyone in costume and the weather couldn't have been more perfect.
April also ran the race with us, we went as incredible moms!My neighbor Rachel also ran the race. She ran with her sisters, Glenda the good Witch and Dorothy!
I'd like to think we were original with our costumes, but we were more functional than anything else. There were many others who had the same idea of Incredible function with a costume. It was fun to see what people were willing to wear while running 13 miles.
This man is the best! Mike is always so supportive of everything I do and seeing him get our kids into costume and on the sideline to cheer me on makes me fall in love with him even more. Sounds cheesy, I know, but it's true!
This hearse has been driving around town advertising the run. I think it's awesome!Incredibles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles combine powers with a hug! These two are such special little friends.
It was such a great run and a great feeling to cross the finish line after running 13.1 miles! So fun!
