The Graniteman Triathlon

I achieved two goals in my first sprint triathlon: 1. finish 2. finish above last place in my age group. The breakdown of events was: 1/3 mile swim, 15 mile bike, 3 mile run. It was much more fun than I expected it to be. So much so that I'm thinking of trying another before the snow flies....which is probably next month here in Minnesota. I was fortunate to have Rhonda (my sister) and Bruce (bro-in-law on Liem's side) race along with me. I was also very grateful to have the support of my husband and an all male cheering squad. And I credit my training to Eli, who provided me with endless opportunities to run after him.
