Layton Triathlon

My sisters convinced me to do a triathlon with them while I was in town. They had both done this race a few times, but it was a first for me.  It was a lot of fun!
Here we are all marked up and ready for the race!
It was a traditional swim, bike, run triathlon.  It was a 300 mete swim, 6 mile bike ride and a 1.5 mile run.  Just the perfect distance for me!
By some miracle, I made it to the medal stand!  It took first place in my division (women ages 25-29). My sister Nicole also took first in her division. Natalie would have gotten a medal too if she would have put herself in the right age bracket!!
Here we all are at the finish line with out racer medals!
Me and my little cheerleader!  She was there for the last half mile and helped to run me in to the finish line.  So glad she could be there to help me.

It was a really fun race and if I'm in town next summer I hope to do it again!!

I'm super impressed. I trained for a triathlon a couple of years ago but chickened out. Way to go!
