Can you Tri?




John and I did our triathlon together this weekend-Jackson Country Tri at Longview Lake. Yes, John did beat me BUT I got 3rd in my age division. Granted there wasn't too many ladies in my age category but still I get a medal. That's pretty great in my book. I think I will continue to do longer tri's because we all know I'm not a sprinter- my Grandpa Pontious said it the best when I was in cc and track in high school- It doesn't matter if Julie does the 2 miler or the 800 her pace is the same.
John and I didn't see each other until I got to mile 1 of my run and he was at mile 4! he was in the first heat of the swim and I was in heat 4- he cheered me on when I had a mile left to go.

What will be our next race?? Should we do a longer tri? How about a Half Iron Man together? Ummmm. Maybe not!
