Silicon Valley Kids Triathlon - DONE!

My brother and I competed in the Silicon Valley Kids Triathlon this weekend.  It was so much fun, but very challenging.  4 laps (100 yards) was kind of hard.  I'm 7 now, so I was put in the 7-8 year old division.  C'mon, I just turned 7!  For some reason, the 6 and unders do 1 lap, but the 7s do 4 laps of swimming.  What?  Anyhow, I was able to use a kickboard and I did complete my 4 laps.  Pretty good, eh?

Here we are watching the bigger kids go first....

Getting my body markings.  Heat 17.  #881.

My bike

Transition area all set up.  #881 is ready to race!

Bye Mom and Dad.  7 and ups don't get a parent to go with them.
I had to do it all by myself.  

Chatting it up with a new friend.

Swimming done.

Running barefoot in the parking lot?

Mom couldn't go in, so she's really really far.  I had to dry myself, put shoes, socks on, shirt on, and 
helmet too.  Off to bike 2 miles.


Dropped off my bike and ready to get my laps done.

Sweet!!!!
My time was 28 minutes and 53 seconds!  Woot Woot!

All done and so happy about it.  

My friend Kaela did it too!
