My Triathlete!

Saturday was Chris' first triathalon! About a year ago he told me that he wanted to do one... and he wasn't joking! Ever since he has trained and prepared for this day. He did SO awesome! I was such a proud wife!

Step 1: Get ready! There was one transition area for everyone, so each participant had their own designated spot to keep all of their stuff to run back and forth to! They also had to get tatooed with their numbers!


Step 2: The swim! 750 Meters... 1/2 mile!
Step 3: The bike! So after ripping off the wet suit, he then bikes 13.5 miles.
Step 4: The run! This picture looks like he hasn't hardly done anything, but the final event is the 3 mile run!
Step 4: Breathe and Rest!
We had so much fun watching!

That is awsome! Chris you are in such good shape. I would die just trying to go a 1/2 a mile.
