Swim-Ride-Run, Jr.

See this on my daughter's leg?

There is only one good reason for having a number written

in permanant marker

on one's leg.

A triathlon.

This is the third year our Celebration

has had a Kid's Triathlon.

The adult triathlon has been going strong for years

and some ambitious parents decided

the kids needed such an event also.

So they organized it.

Today Miss Abbie did the swim in the cool, early morning air

and semi dried off before hopping on her bike for the 3 mile ride

and transitioned for her 1 mile run

and even had enough reserve in her

to have a good dash to the finish line.

This is a great experience for these kids

and it is such a fun event with

lots of cheering and encouragement.

And always more fun to do with friends.

There were 70 or so kids who participated this year.

Winners, every one.
