EMMETT'S MOST EXCELLENT TRIATHLON

Tony and I got up this morning and drove to Emmett to support Traci in "Emmett's Most Excellent Triathlon". Traci, Jason and the kids were already at Black Canyon Dam when we got to Emmett around 8:45 AM. We set up our chairs close to the finish line and waited.........
Here we are enjoying the beautiful weather. It had just rained and it was perfect temperature wise! Tony was preparing his talk for next Sunday and I was reading my book!

Here comes Traci. She has already swam 1/3 mile and biked 13 miles. She is ready to make the transition from bike to her tenny runners and hit the road running!

Hanging up her bike and changing her shoes!

And there she goes ! 3 miles left to go!

Here she comes! She made it and still has a smile on her face!

Caden snapping a picture of his mom! Congratulations Traci! WAY TO GO!!!

Traci, showing off the shirt she won and promptly gave away to a fellow runner's husband!

We went to Sonic after the race and got some lunch before leaving for home. Here are the girls and baby brother! They were sure proud of their mommy!

Caden and Sophia

Here we are doing what we do best! We decided to try out next year...........NOT!
The End

She's amazing. I am 100% positive that I will not be competing in a triathlon 4 months after I have my baby :0) She looks good though! (I have also come to the realization that I will never look like her) Looks like a fun day :0)
