Bryce Canyon Half Marathon


July 18-20 We went to Bryce Canyon (actually Cannonville) to time and run the Bryce Canyon Half Marathon and 5K. It is a fun event in a very small town. We had over 1,100 runners sign up. That is huge for us! We tried some new things with our timing system that worked wonderfully. Ken was so worried about how the timing would go that he felt sick and didn't have a very good race. He still finished 3rd in the 5K. After the race we ate and took a long nap. We got to stay there for 2 nights which was really nice. It gave us a chance to relax and enjoy the area. We drove around a little to look at the scenery then went to the Old Time Fiddlers program at the Park in Cannonville. It was like stepping into a time machine and travelling a hundred years or so. We love the small town atmosphere.
