On Friday, August 27th Brook, Chelcie and Natalie decided to all try to run their first half-marathon... 13.1 miles of running. They chose the Mapleton Moonlight Half-Marathon up Hobble Creek Canyon. The premise of the race was to crown the person that finished the closest to midnight the champion.
All runners were given the freedom to choose when they would like to start anywhere from 8:00 pm to 10:00pm and there were specific instructions to not use watches. The starting point was at Jolley's Park, 7 miles up Hobble Creek Canyon. The plan was to start at 9:00pm sharp, however with the unpredictable rain storms and some persuasion from Natalie the crew started at 8:26 in a break of the showers. All three completed their race between 11 and 11:30 and I couldn't be prouder of them. Especially my sweetheart Brook!!! Way to go ladies!!!
