momma tri

This blog entry has little to nothing to do with Ansel, it is all about me today. I did my first triathlon since giving birth to Ansel. Now ,before you say "wow" it was called the Shortest Triathlon Ever and had a lot of children involved. We swam 100 yards in a pool, biked 2.5 miles on flat streets and then ran 1.2 miles. It took me 27 minutes and my friend, Paulete, 22. She placed third in her age group. Woo hoo Paulette!! I would like to think that I could have knocked a couple of minutes off my time had I remembered my running shoes. I had to do the run in my flip flops. If you click on the picture below you can see me in my flip flops. Anyway, I finished and now I feel motivated to train for a longer one in the summer. Ansel and Jeremy came to cheer us on.
