TRI x TRI

The kids all participated in their very first TRIATHLON on Saturday. If you think you might be offended by a bragging momma then please skip this post :) because I am SO PROUD OF THEM! They did such an AWESOME, AMAZING job!!! They ran 1 mile, biked 4 miles, and then swam 100 meters. It was H-O-T and the bike ride was H-A-R-D (in the woods/grass & they had only trained on the road) and H-I-L-L-Y, and did I mention how H-O-T it was?! (Kelly said he'd never seen me sweat so much....and I was just a spectator!)

Before the race:

RUN (x3)

BIKE (x3)

SWIM (x3)

There were medals for all the finishers:
And some cool mugs, too!
Kyler came in 5th place in his age group:
Trevin was 2nd place in his age group:
And Kierstyn was 1st place in her age group (3rd place overall):

I am SO PROUD of EACH ONE OF THEM for their hard work, determination, and for NOT giving up!!!!

Race Results (for some reason they had Kyler listed as Kyler Mereelotte but that's him!)

Congrats to all three! What a wonderful accomplishment! Even better, what a great habit to start at such a young age...I know that some of your cousins would love to join you, maybe in a few years. :)
