On Saturday I did my first triathlon. It was so much fun. I loved it. I never would have been able to do something like this if it weren't for Sarah. We have been training together and it has been great.
We started out running 3.1 miles. As you can see we were still smiling at the end of it.
Next we biked 12 miles. It wasn't to bad except we had to go up a HUGE hill TWICE. Sarah did awesome and made it up both times. I on the other hand had to walk a bit of it. And my hands were frozen.
The swimming was definitely my weak point. We went 350 meters. The pool was so crowded and the doggy paddle didn't work so well in that. :)
After the race I felt so good. I am so excited for the next one. Its to cold, so I am going to have to wait a few months to do it again. Yeah!!!
