mamas finished triathlon!!

Well, we did it! Nervous tension mounted as we pulled into the park and I watched the athletes walking around with bikes. Turns out, these were the competitors from the more serious competitions that took place before the try-the-tri (thank goodness).

I soon found my fellow momstown mamas and we proceeded to the chilly water. Any nerves were eased when my little cheerleaders (my kids), ran into my arms and started poking at the swimming cap :) The swim was tough, the bike was pretty hard too and by the time we hit the run, my legs felt like tree trunks and it was mind over matter.

momstown mamas all crossed the finish line within minutes of each other, and even got to celebrate over a beer and plenty of bbq'ed protein at Linda's house. Thanks Linda! And thanks ladies, it was fun, and I would do again anytime (okay, not anytime, maybe next summer!).
