Tri, tri, and tri again

Jim completed his third sprint triathlon today. I was very proud of him and very happy that I was not participating in the race. Lilly and I cheered him on and Jack kind of cried, he was pretty tired. Jim killed on the course and passed a ton of people on the bike.


Other race highlights:
1. The guy who came in first went out and completed the 5K run two more times, I think the race kind of bored him.

2. One guy who was very fit did the entire race barefoot. It made us smile and think of our friend Eric who runs barefoot as well. Both are fast runners!

3. Lilly waited for her daddy to come in and ran to the finish line with him. (Blurry, cropped photo of the race to the finish line)



After all the excitement Jim came home and took a 4 hour nap while Lilly played her heart out in the yard and at a birthday party. We had dinner with some friends and tried in vain to pick up a grill that we ordered.

Next triathlon for Jim is in August, I am going to do it as a relay. We'll see what other races the summer brings.
