A Triathalon For the Kids

As I have mentioned before, the Sharps are a very active and healthy family.   But I could hardly believe it when I heard that Kaiya and Teague were going to participate in a triathalon!  I relaxed a bit when I learned that it was a much scaled-down version.  However, it was still pretty tough and Kaiya and Teague both did very well in it.

First they had to get their numbers.



Then on to the first event: swimming one lap.  Since Kaiya had been on a swim team they had her go first so that she wouldn't get held up by slower swimmers.  She rocked it!  I didn't realize just how fast she can swim until I walked beside her as she did so.  Teague did really well too!

Next: biking.  I'm not sure exactly how long the course was, but it wasn't too long.

 And finally, running. 

 We sure were proud of them!  Here they are with their medals, with mom and dad.
