Tryin' the Tri


Corey set a goal with a running buddy, Danny, a few months back to do a Triathalon.  He's been running a lot, and swimming a little to prep for it.  Me and the boys were so excited to cheer him on! Beck had a tough time keeping the enthusiasm up since the race cut into his nap time, but we can't hold that against him.  Ash and I kept it up throughout the race though, and had a great time watching it all!

Danny's wife, Shannon made up the awesome signs for the boys to hold up...why didn't I think of that?! I was so glad she brought them along! Between her two boys and mine, we had our own little cheering section.

He did a fantastic job...and did really well on the running portion, then would have done really well on the biking part had he brought the right kind of bike along:)  Corey decided to just go for it with his mountain bike, and then watched as big guys who were likely a bit fitness challenged whiz past him.  Next time he'll bring a road bike:)  The swimming part was by far the most brutal, and it was last, so everyone was already wiped out.  But he did it and finished!

Way to go Corey!  We'd love to cheer you on for another one. The boys and I are SO proud of you!
