It also looks quite blown out across the rock faces? All I did was convert to labcolor and then apply it to the image. I played with lowering the contrast a bit but it didn't make much difference. I like the blue but it doesn't help that I took that photo in mid-day sun. I can post the original too for comparison. Im just learning pp. And I'm not very good with it, just trying new stuff here and there.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

Your original has a lot more detail in the rocks, perhaps just boosting the green channel might give you a bit more "pop"?

I would lower the blue just a touch and raise the green a bit, maybe even add a little red/yellow to warm it up. Canon t3i, Sigma 17-50 f2.8, Rokinon 8mm fisheye, Canon 50 f1.8, Canon 55-250

Apart from that, amazing shot. Thanks guys! Long exposure+little girl running is what caused it to be blurred, I dig it because you can tell she's running and it captures that youthful spirit. That was a total right place at the right time moment. 5DMarkII/40D/hacked Canon FL 50mm f/1.4/and some other old, cheap, MF glass/RF-602's/2-283's and 4-285's/Macbook/My eyeballs.
