Soak Up The Sun Triathlon...

We were a little concerned about Matt getting in from a week of playing...I mean working...in San Francisco late Friday night and racing Saturday morning...BUT...he had a great race and improved his time from last year, which is always what you would like to do.

Soak Up The Sun is always our 1st triathlon of the season so it just sets the mood for a fun summer of racing. It is one the shortest races he will do, but he still enjoys it just the same ~ 250 yard swim, 8 mile bike, and 2 mile run.

The Buddies (Jennifer and Eugene) ~ our FAVORITE triathlon friends! Jennifer and Matt raced while Eugene and I spectated...

Matt running into the water to start the swim...no idea what is up with the tongue sticking out...I've never seen him do this before!

Trying to get deep enough to start swimming...

Off the bike...now to transition for the run...

Headed out on the run...

You know we always get at least one of these...here is our wave as he is approaching the finish line...

For some reason, I didn't get any good pictures of the sweet darling...here she is cleaning off her feet after running around in the wet grass / mud all morning...she is such a trooper at these races...guess she doesn't know any different...she has done it her entire life!
