Kids of Steel!

This is the third year the kids have participated in the Kids of Steel triathlon.  This event takes place at a park run by Aaron's work and is always a hit with my kids.  Asher requested that dad do the triathlon with him (I had this pleasure last year :).  

Here are the boys heading to the race!
 Asher knows exactly how to set up his transition area.  He even made sure his socks were not inside-out and placed them in his shoes (boy after my heart!).

 Dad and Asher swimming!  Asher is a great swimmer.  He swam freestyle for 50 yards (one lap).

The designated cheerleader!  She is already planning her triathlon debut next year :)

Dad and Asher finishing the swim and then heading to the transition area to start the bike portion.
 Joshua waiting to stat the swim.  He swam breast stroke (his favorite stroke) for 100 yards (2 laps).
 Joshua finishing the swim, caught him mid-stroke.
 Jumping out and heading to transition!
 And he is off on the bike!
 The cheerleader started getting a little tired......and grumpy....
 Dad and Asher finishing the run (they ran 1/2 a mile).
 Asher with his trophy.
 Joshua finishing the bike portion, heading into transition, and then starting the run!
