TRI- THIS!


The Runners!

Sophie and I just did a Tri...the Dinotriathlon. I did the same triathlon 2 years ago and my goal was to do it in under 2 hours this time around. The first time I did it in 2 hours one minute. I did meet my goal ( yippee!) and beat my old time by 7 minutes. A lot of that I attribute to my new bike "Blossom" . It was awesome to actually pass people on the biking section. In this Tri, they write your age on your calf, which makes for a fun game. You can try to see all the ages of the people you are passing. One guy I had to pass twice because I went crazy on the shifting and through my chain off!


Gus got to race too! All the kids got to run 1/2 way around the track and he shot out like a rocket. He was in first place ( with about 50 kids running) and a tall red headed boy passed him in the last 10 yards. What a fast little runner he is!! He takes after his mom.









If I knew I looked like this from the back I probably wouldn't have worn my Tri suit! South Beach here I come. Time to lose the last few excess pounds :)










They said I was the only person to sit down to put my running shoes on. Who knew I was supposed to have my shoes off before I ever got off the bike?
