M3 Triathlon

I did it!!! I swam 1.2 miles in Castaic Lake! Today was the Magic Mountain Man Triathlon and I was on a team with Me doing the swim, David Flick doing the 56 mile bike and my mom running the 13.1 miles. It was challenging, it was so FUN! My time 41 minutes 13 seconds.



A few days before the race I looked at this map and my stomach started hurting, OH my GOODNESS! I have to swim like the whole length of the lake. I was scared! So happy I did it!!!! :)





After my swim we went to go watch the bikes, I had 3 sweat shirts on, I was freezing! (pic courtesy of Heather Keil) :)

Some of our team participants and great supporters!!!
My sisters, Sophi and Briana swam on a team too, there time was faster than me 36 minutes, way to go! :) I think I was having to much fun! :) My cousin Amanda's husband Monte did the bike for Briana's team and they had a friend run it, they got 3rd place for the mixed relay teams :) and Ben K. rode for Sophi's team and a friend, Pat B., ran it. It was such a fun day, just enjoyed everybody and cheered everybody on!

Scout Triathlon!

This morning I participated in my first triathlon. My mom and I made a team. I swam, mom rode the bike and then I ran. We did it with sister Sophi, cousin James, cousin Marshall, cousin Sam and Uncle Randy and all the scouts. Sam swam on a team of scouts, Sophi swam for Marshall and Uncle Randy's team and then did the whole thing and cousin James did the whole thing. Sophi, Marshall and Uncle Randy's team won first place for the adult teams, THEY ROCK!!! They all got $10 gift cards to IN 'N OUT. I'm so glad I did it, it was challenging and so much fun, a great experience! I was nervous to do it with all these young boy's but they were all so cute and they all did so well. Wonderful and amazing to see them do something so great for themselves. When I was running there were many of these kids who would say "good job" and give high fives. Such a great experience, such great kids, FUN, FUN, FUN!
