We're Back!

We didn't actually go anywhere. I just took a brief hiatus from posting. We got kind of busy, and I've been dealing with a wicked case of poison ivy (I won't post pictures, you're welcome). But back whenever I posted last, I promised you a post on what Preston's been up, so here goes:

Preston completed his first triathlon yesterday! Maybe he will come on and provide one of his rare posts to tell you about it, so I'll just share the pictures.

What a hunk.
He wanted a picture of his leg muscles too.

Here they are getting ready to jump in the lake. Can you tell which one is Preston? (Hint: he's the white one who's not wearing Spandex.)

Here he is in the transition to bike area.
And taking off on his 28-mile bike ride.

And now he's off on the 10-K run.

I'll leave it to Preston to philosophize on the whole experience, but he did a great job, especially for it being his first triathlon, and doing the long course no less!

Well, that's probably enough pictures for one day, but don't worry - you won't have to wait two more weeks for the next post, because the triathlon was only one part of an extremely exciting weekend, so stay tuned!

Nice! Tracy and I want to do a triathlon, but I want to start with a sprint, not an Olympic-length tri.
