We have a triathlete in our family! For those that don't know a triathlon is a 3 part race that consists of running, swimming and biking. It's really hard and it requires serious commitment and training to compete. This weekend, my brother-in-law, Kevin, competed in his first triathlon. He swam 1 mile, biked 25 miles and ran 6.2 miles. He ran a 6.40 mile and finished the triathlon in less than 2.5 hours!
Great Job, Kevin! We are so proud of you and the hard work it took to compete! Congratulations, you did really great!
And off topic: your mom has the same b-day as me! 6-15 is the best b-day of the YEAR (the middle day of the middle month!). Except this year when it is expected to be shared with father's day. Lame.
The thing most people don't understand is that watching and taking pictures of the tri is almost just as hard. I waited just under 6 hours with our kids to get a good photo finish when Grant did his half-iron.
