Mini Triathlon Day

This morning my son participates in his mini triathlon: 100yd. swim, 1.5 mile bike and 1 mile run.

He's practiced the running and biking portions. Last night we went to the community pool where the swim will be, although it was a summer party so he couldn't practice swimming. He's still a little unsure about wearing his contacts or glasses. He's leaning toward the contacts, figure if he loses them in the water, it's a learning experience anyway!

We found out that of the four age brackets, there are 50 participants. No clue how the breakdown falls. Top three girls and top three boys receive awards.

It should be a good time. I'm wondering how many of these kids are die hard athletes. I'm actually looking forward to the younger competitors as I'm sure they will offer quite a few laughs!
