Big Cottonwood Canyon Marathon


 Trent had worked really hard for this race.  This summer he ate so perfectly and trained exactly as he could have.  Several runs were long and hot, so he'd run early in the mornings.  For his longer runs we'd get up at 5am and I'd drive him up American Fork Canyon to Tibble Fork Resuvior and drop him off in the dark.  He'd run down the canyon, across the valley and home to a nearby park that we'd left a car at.  He is amazing.  So it was no surprise that he shaved 21 mins off his last time!  A personal Best for sure.  Final time 3:30.24!  Way to go babe!  With your next age bracket, you are close to qualifying for Boston!  Next year!!!


Raegan and I meet him at the finish line.  Because it goes down the canyon, there really aren't many places to cheer then get down to the finish line in time.  Lots of traffic and people.  But it was exciting to see him finish strong!
