Icebreaker Triathlon



Last weekend I did my first triathlon!  It was great.  I did it with the 2 other kindergarten teachers that I work with and we had such a fun time training together and making matching t-shirts for the race.  I think I will definitely do another one sometime.  This was a shorter one than normal I heard but I'm not positive if that's true, but either way I'm impressed that I was even able to finish it without drowning!  :)  My goal was to finish under 1 hr. 20 min. and surprisingly I was able to do it.  My finishing time was 1 hr. 16 min. 16 sec.  The total distance was 250 m swim, then an 8 mile bike ride, then a 5k (3.1 mile) run.  I was so fun!  I really loved it!  :)  Here are a few pictures.
