Emily's 1st triathlon

Emily is wearing the yellow and black life jacket, waiting her turn to go

 We have been learning to swim on our tummy not our back! silly girl

 This was her last event and she had to run and 1/2 mile she was worn out.

Let's start from the start our little neighbors did a triathlon a month or so back and got Emily all excited about it so I signed her up for the one in Roosevelt, a triathlon is three events, running, swimming and biking, each race is different just depends on the sponser's, she Ran 1/2 mile, Rode her bike a mile and swam 50 yards not a big deal, but it is for the kids, we biked a lot and ran a lot and swam to prepare for this she was so nervous but excited, they don't time the kids because everyone is a winner, at the end everyone got a medal and snacks she wore that medal for days and has shown everyone, but why wouldn't you brag about it? this is a huge accomplishment for a kids and an adult, I am proud of her for giving it a try and she want to do more, maybe next year, And I hope that dang hip of hers is better she was struggling after the run but she wanted to finish.
