I made it!!!

Hallelujah!!! I made it out of the triathlon alive!!! LOL I had few minor hang ups here and there but I pressed on and made the best of it. I think I left my card reader at home as soon as I can find it I will post the evidence. The kids were a little weary they are not used to "roughing it."
Our little Princess is not accustomed to port-o-potties AT ALL!!! My poor H stood in line with her for an eternity only for her to step inside and immediately come out pinching her nose and crying in horror. I doubt we will be camping anytime soon. I snagged copies of someone elese's photos to give you a sneek peek.

Walter E Long Lake

I'm the fourth ripple on the right LOL

Sea of swimmers getting race ready

My bike was here some where actually I remember that sunflower this was from 2007

Endless rows of racked bikes awaiting the transition from swim to bike

I love how when you are riding down the last stretch you hear cheers from the runners encouraging you to push through
My game face LOL I was actually telling the fam to hurry up they were not at the finish line they were down by the trees



The trek back to the convention center




As you can see someone is NOT a happy camper!!
Bless her heart Monday she was diagnosed with Strep throat.

She did however stop to take my photo with my bike before we mounted her (the bike of course) on the car. I guess the photographer in her does not take sick days.

I give ALL the glory to God even in the darkest moments, in the chaos of the waves of the open water, I was comforted in knowing he would never leave me or forsake me.
