Steamboat Springs - Half Marathon

We are spending an extended weekend in Steamboat Springs, CO with Brian's family.  It's about 4 hours from our house, up in the mountains and just beautiful here!  We picked this weekend because of the races - Brian's brother ran a 10k and my sister-in-law and I both ran the half marathon (Brian ran 2 miles with us on Saturday for fun, unfortunately there were no shirts for that :).  My sister-in-law is what I call a "real runner" and had an awesome race.  While I like to run, I am pretty steady with a 10 min. mile.  Nothing to brag about, but I did make goals to not walk and to beat my last year's half marathon time, and I was able to meet both goals!  The mountains are beautiful and it was a gorgeous day.  Here are a few pictures from the weekend trip.
