Andrew and his friend Dave Elsworth competed in an Olympic Distance Triathlon this weekend. 1.2 mile swim, 26 mile bike and a 10K run. The race was in Peachtree City, and started at 7am, which left it impossible for my friend Emily and I to get there before start time with 4 kids. So we got there to see the transition from bike to run...Here's Andrew coming in after the bike...
Finishing the 10K.
The guys' cheering section! Me, Emily, Lily, Jack, Henry and Nora
This race was right by Britt's house, so their family and Mom were also there to cheer them on!
After the race! 3 hrs, 3 minutes! Way to go guys!
It's also worth mentioning that our entire family, except Andrew had the flu all the previous week, and I'm pretty sure Andrew started coming down with it during the race. He said he felt awful during the run, and I know it wasn't because he wasn't prepared. He hardly ate all that day following the race, and on in to the next week. So way to go, babe! You finished with the flu too! :)
