Let me apologize to anyone who stumbles upon this blog today. I am going to be bragging unashamedly on my son, the triathlete, and there will be an ungodly amount of photos!
J-Man did a triathalon today. 50 meter swim, 2 mile bike, and 500 meter run! He did so awesome!!!!!

He waited patiently to jump into the pool, and then he passed four kids in the water. He did not hold back...
Until he got out of the water and decided to use his first transition time to pose for the camera and wave to the crowd.
Here he is posing with his brother, and ready for the race in his transition area. Check out that stud! As we walked into the park to prepare, he asked, "I wonder how I am going to win this thing?"








Thumbs up! Look at all of those yellow caps.


Jumping in the water!






That is J-Man's yellow head climbing out of the pool (ahead of everyone, I might add).






Taking his time in T1.










Out on the bike.









Go speed racer!















T2


Out for the run...
Look at that determination!!!

Finished!

This is what D-Man thought of the situation at times.


Our friend Sarah Grace competed as well. Here they are trying to act "too cool" at the finish line!


We had so much fun. I think that The Man got just as much of a work out as J did, running after him to take pics. We were so proud. I have to admit that I even got a little choked up watching him cross the finish line so strong as they called his name and he ran through the finishing ribbon!!!!! He worked so hard and is ready to do another tri as soon as possible.
