My Daughter's First Triathlon - In Pictures
 | ||||
| Pre-race breakfast of milk, cheerios and a little Mickey Mouse Clubhouse |
Unlike some other races, this one is completely laid back and parents are encouraged to be with their kids at every point during the race. At 2 1/2 she was the youngest one in the race, so we just were there to have fun and to do whatever she wanted to do.
Here's some pictures from her big day!
Fellow blogger, Chris from Tri 4 Success was also there with his kids. They did awesome! Here's a link to his Race Report!

Many thanks to our Web Manager, Blake for the logo design and web page development and putting up with my umpteen changes; Michelle for allowing me to bounce logo concepts and names to no end and to Mike Bowers, the originator of the Try the Tri at Wise Regional and the Race Director for the series. The Try the Tri in July 2009 was my first triathlon and started me on this crazy journey! :)
