Blue Mountain Triathlon!!!

Here are pictures from the big race! It was so much fun! A little recap: I fell down three times pre-race while I was practicing skiing and now I have a huge bruise on my hip. I only fell down three times during the race and was lapped about midway through my first lap of the ski. The bike was awesome! Dad's road bike was amazing, and so was his helmet! And who knew the hill going to Blanding out of Verdure was so long? The run? Well, my hamstrings have never hurt so bad in my entire life as they did when I first got off the bike and started running! But I did pass about 5-6 people on the run! And the best part was getting the hug from dad at the end! Also, my goal was 3:00 hours, and I cut off 20 minutes and did it in about 2:40, only 1 hour behind the first placer! Big thank you to my fan team - Dad, Mom and Nan, and to Kelly Jensen for lots of pictures and the video!

Ski!
Bike!

Nan is thinking, "What could be taking her so long?"


Run!
Getting a little snack just before the big hill up the mountain!
She only cried a little!
