This post is just a little late--see the green leaves on the trees? Oh, well. Jer completed in a triathalon at the end of September. And boy did he train! And when I say train, I mean he ran around the block three times....this guy makes me green with envy the way he can just wing it. I have to say though, he has been riding his bike to work everyday for months, and that is quite an accomplishment :)
His number was 911--isn't that funny? It made for a good theme song, even Bridger and Kennedy sang along ("Somebody call 911!") The other competitors were very envious....
Here we are at the finish line waiting for Jer to show up--the race was in our neighborhood, so I walked to the finish line. However, I was hoping to be there in 20 minutes but it actually took 45 (did I ever regret that decision!!) I was so panicked that I had missed him! Luckily we made it and I was even able to catch my breath before he finished. :)
It was a perfect fall day--they gave out sidewalk chalk and kites to the kids so we had a fun time.
Poor Jer, he finishes a triathalon and the kids suck up all of his water! What a nice dad--I would have told them to go find a water fountain somewhere :) I'm hoping to be able to do this race next year--as long as it's sometime after May...anyone care to join me???

Good job Jer!!! I would join you next year if a triathalon didnt include swimming. =)I cannot swim for the life of me.
Congratulations Jeremy!! That is such an awesome accomplishment. You guys are such good examples to your kids to stay healthy and active. I just hate to run, I could never do one of these races.
