Hummingbird Triathlon

This past Saturday was the Hummingbird Triathlon here in town. "Steve" competed and I did the bike and run unofficially. I still can't do the swim length so I had originally found a swimmer to complete that leg, but then found out I was going to have to pay the "team" price of $70 just to compete!! I opted not to do that and just do the bike and run leg by myself. I just started when the first heat of swimmers started getting out of the water. It was pretty fun. Kind of boring because there weren't a whole lot of bikers of runner out on the course yet (there were 7 heats total) so I was biking and running by myself a lot...didn't feel like much of a competition. But, I did it and now I just need to work on my swim if I am ever going to truly be a "triathlete"! :) But "Steve" on the other hand did awesome!! He bought a new tri bike the night before the race and was super excited about that! He came in 2nd in his age division and 6th overall!!! Pretty impressive. He beat his time in this triathlon last year by 6 minutes!! Someday he will win it all! :)
I don't have very many pictures since I was out on the course but here are a few!

Before the race...everyone laughed at me because I showed up with coffee...it was early!! :)
