Hawk-I-Triathlon

After many, many weeks of training, Justin competed in his first triathlon on Sunday. We looked at the temperature before we left the house at 4:30 am and it was only 44 degrees! Lets just say we were worried about the swim.

Snacks after the race. Nice spandex boys!

The water ended up being warmer than the air so the guys were very happy about that. 700 people participated in the race. Justin placed 206th with a time of 1 hr 13 min and Erik placed 32nd with a time of 1 hr 2 min. I have a triathlon coming up the end of June, so wish me luck!
