A few days late, but better late than never! This weekend, in addition to a zillion other things, I did a portion of a triathlon. I had never thought of doing it as a relay, but Mike's sister Nicki and her husband Tim asked if I would swim in the TBF Tri for Fun. Why not, right? The swim was 1/2 a mile, the bike was 16 (Tim was doing that part) and the run was 3 miles (Nicki had that covered).
Here's our rocking relay team, The Gladiators (Skyler, Nicki and Tim's daughter named us):
Our goal had been to do the triathlon in 1 hour and 40 minutes. Our final time was 1:34:28! I'm so proud of us! I had a 15 minute swim... which is an improvement on my 17:06 from the first triathlon. I definitely want to get back into the swimming thing... I had such a fun time!
Here's me getting ready for my swim. I was super nervous (I need to learn to get over that!) and totally excited that Mike was taking my picture...
Here's the swim start... the water was suprisingly warm. Then again, note the nuclear towers in the background. Allegedly, it's shut down and shouldn't cause any issues (you're exposed to no more radiation there than you are on a commercial airplane). I don't have any new appendages, but we'll see what happens some day when I have kids!
Finally, here's Mike and I after my swim. I think it's one of my favorite pictures of us, even though I don't have any makeup on!
The whole weekend was really fun... we were at graduations, barbeques and I had an SCSO show. I'm totally exhausted this week and am looking forward to some R&R next weekend!
