Family Triathalon

We had our first family triathalon. It was a total success. In the end of course, after quite a bit of moaning "This won't be fun!" from Aaron. All the boys surprised themselves and exceeded our expectations for sure. 
 Because it was really cold we started out with the run, then did bike and swim. To start we just let them run nonstop for 15 minutes around the elementary school track. This way each age group could finish at the same time and all get a good run in. Jacob suprised us all by running .8 mile without breaking a sweat.
 
 Time to hit the bike portion.

 The ride was about 3 miles long and inluded some moderate hills. The big boys flew through this part. 

 We ended at the YMCA pool where we were all glad to get in the warm water. Alex swam 4 laps. We were all very tired at the end.
