We Did it!



Well, Our Triathalon was a blast!! Peter first started with the 5K, then John took off on the 12 mile bike ride and then i started the 1/2 mile swim! It was so fun and we actually all did really well. Peter hasn't ran in 6 months and was able to place 4th with 23 minutes, then John hasn't riden a bike since before his mission and was able to pass a guy and got into 3rd place with just under 50 min's and then i went and finished in only 22 minutes and we ended up taking fourth place overall, but only 36 sec's behind 3rd place. It was so fun and i was amazed at how well it all went. This past week john and i made an attempt to swim Mon and Wed at 5:30 in the morning and we did but it took us 35-40 minutes just to swim the 18 laps (1 /2 mile) but yesterday at the triathalon i did it in only 22 minutes! We were all pretty happy with how things went and can't wait to do it again! We made a good team, and to just think if we'd of all trained a little for it...
