Triathlon season is off and running!!

Today was "Tri the Rock" the first triathlon of the year for Anna and the Kids that TRI team. It was awesome to watch them challenge themselves after a full winter of training and conditioning! This will probably be one of Anna's toughest triathlons this year. Even though she is still 6 she has to compete with the 7-8 year olds because she will be 7 at the cut-off date for this season. The course was very tough. She swam 2 lengths of the pool (in freezing cold water), biked a very hilly 2.5 miles and ran 1K (about 2/3 of a mile). Wow! I know I couldn't have done it!! But, she did! So well in fact, that out of 62 girls in the 7-8 year old division she placed 4th! The entire Kids that TRI team made a great showing and we were proud of all of them!!

  2. Good to see a photo of Jo and to know that she is well.

    Sorry, I had to remove the first two comments. They were the same as above but I misspelled Jo's name.

  5. You probably won't remember me but I had the pleasure of meeting all three of you last year at the Texas Classic. What fun photos on your blog. They put a big smile on my face! I love the ones of the spartan race. How can you *not* like a race that has lots of mud in it? *grin*

    Cheers!
