The plan.....................

Ok so here is the plan.......
How about 3-4 days at home? Yep you heard me NO school, baseball, meetings, training, racing, camping, or traveling. No plans (right this moment at least) until work Thursday night.
Update: Never mind........ meeting tomorrow morning, extra shift at work Wednesday night, work Thursday, leave for wedding Friday, come home Sunday, back to work Monday. :-( So much for time at home!

But before I go off and enjoy nothing I will briefly share our past weekend. The kids and I went to LG on Thursday after I got off work and stayed busy helping with triathlon stuff until race time Saturday morning. The triathlon started out with a really chilly 1k swim in the lake, then a 25k mnt bike ride, and finished with a 10k run. I had a great time, improved my time from last year overall by a couple of minutes. The best part was when a HUGE 6 point bull elk crossed in front a couple of us on our bikes. What an amazing sight. I have seen a lot of elk obviously in my life but to have a bull that close to us on a bike race was really cool. Although, the girl in front of me seemed a little more shocked then I. Tob joined a team and biked the course this year. He only flipped over his handlebars once so I think he considered it a good race. Their team had a high school swim team swimmer, Tob biking and an EOU cross country runner. Umm, they got 1st place in their division if you couldn't guess.

Then the kids Duathlons started right after I finished. Alexyss competed in the the easy course, which is a 1/4 mile run and 1/4 mile bike ride and won for the 2nd year in a row. Next year she is going to have to step it up to the medium race. Nojah competed in the "hard duathlon" which was a 1/2 mile run, 2 laps around the lake so 3-3.5 miles or so with some rocky technical trail (a small portion of the adult course) and then finished it off with another 1/2 mile run. He came in 4th and did awesome. They both did a great job and had fun (of course the most important part). Ok so was that brief? Because in all truth I could keep writing.

Now we are home and I am going to enjoy it!

Let me quickly say thank you to those who came up to the lake to support us and watch us race! It helps so much to hear your voices! Thanks mom and dad and Kiley and Grant and of course all you others who were up there cheering us on!
