Clayton Kids Triathlon

 My friend Marisa invited us to participate in a kids triathlon in Clayton.  They have several endurance athletes in their ward and they put on triathlons for adults every year and this year, for the kids!  It was held Labor Day weekend and followed up with a bbq.  It was a blast.  The families that hosted and put it together are amazing and generous and I thank Marisa for thinking of us!!

Reagan and Katie getting ready to swim, bike, run!
There were several heats and lots of kids, so here is Ellis, Katie and Reagan waiting their turn.
 The swimming portion was done in an indoor pool, which is v. cool.

 Dried off and hopping onto the bikes!
 They are off!
 On their way back!

 Onto the running portion!
 Finished!  They received medals--real, actual medals. 

 For the kids 4 and under, they had a race in the backyard.  This is total up Nolan's alley since he spends about 8 hours a day running around.  He also received a medal!
 My boys!!



I am not sure of the distances, but it was obvs not the true distances for a triathlon :)  Just kid distances, but still a very difficult workout for them.  It was fun to see old friends and make some new ones.
