my first triathalon


On Saturday, June 3rd, I participated in my first triathalon. It was the Bravado Challange - a mini triathalon consisting of a 4 mile hike through Lapham Peak in Delafield, a 10 mile bike ride, and a 4 mile canoe trip down the Fox River. The picture was take BEFORE the event. The hike was brutal, with lots of vertical grades. I can't believe people were actually running! The weather was beautiful. I had a lot of fun and finished the race.

The proceeds from the fundraiser went to the birth-to-three foundation of Lutheran Social Services to help families of premature babies with medical expenses. I'm hoping to do this again next year!

Comments:
Congratulations! Looks like fun - did you do a relay or all the events??
 
we did them all - we just had partners for the canoe portion of the event. otherwise, people without partners used a kayak.
 
How fun! You gave me a big push to sign myself up for a tri this summer. :)
