Finishers!

Last Sunday, the boys and I competing in our first duathlon.  Back in January, I had registered for a series which included a sprint duathlon and a sprint triathlon and about a month ago, the boys surprised me by expressing interesting in also competing.  For a couple of weekends leading up to the race, Jason & I would take the kids to the East Coast Park and they would practice their distances (500m Run, 6km Bike, 500m Run).

Sunday - Race Day!  Both boys had pre race jiggers and were eager to get started.  Jason and I were so pleased with their effort and the boys were thrilled with the medals they received when they crossed the finish line.  It was such a fun day!

Here are some pictures from the day.






You would think this is the start of the race, but no, its just the kids racing to the start line to get the best position. 

And Jake was happy with his position :)
