2013 Ironkids National Championships
Team Szymanski was on the move again for Anna's last race of the 2013 Triathlon season. We drove 20 hours round-trip to Des Moines, Iowa to join Anna's teammates from Kids That Tri who qualified to compete in the Ironkids National Championships. Over 1500 young triathletes aged 6-15 from all over the US were there to do their best! Out of 79 girls in the 8-year-old division, Anna finished 30th! We were very proud of her and we all had a great time!

This past weekend we took Anna and Lizzy to Wash Park. The flowers were in full bloom! They had a great time playing on the playground and taking our friend's dog "Charlie" for a walk.
