Try this triathlon

On the weekend we saw Try this triathlon at the university. Trevor once again put on a great race and it was great to see sp many triathletes (many newbies) trying their 1st ever race. the weather was brisk in the morning at zero degrees. Brrr. The big question was what to wear. Luckily no rain or snow. :)

We saw katie finish her 1st ever triathlon with a very sore foot. It was hard to watch her run as I knew every step was hurting her. She slowed down her pace enough to finish the race and believe it or not won her age group. Congrats Katie, when your ankle heals you will be flying at your next race.

Sean was also at this race. He was also completing his 1st ever race. Sean looked great from start to finsih and was happy that the sun came out and warmed up the day when it was his turn to race.

Martha was all smiles today for her 1st race of the year. The cold weather did not deter her. One more step on your way to Kelowna!

Rob was also on the course today and he was running the race with his good friend who was completing his 1st ever race. That is a great thing for a friend to do.

Watching the race from the sideline was very cool as it took me back in time to my first tri and the old pool swims. Lots of nerves and excietement running around the pool.

Until next race!
