Yesterday Pete competed in his first ever Corporate Triathlon! 400 metre swim, 8 km bike ride & 4 km run! Not bad for a first go around! It was quite exciting to watch and be a part of. Needless to say my hubby was on a total high all day, buzzing about waiting for his turn to come about. There was 4,500 people that competed in this race, and because the course it quite small and everything runs really close together they had to spread out the start times. A new group started every 15 minutes and each group was between 50-70 people. They divided the groups up with different color swimming caps, and writing on the caps so it was a really smoothly ran operation.
We had to be out of bed by 5 a.m. left the house at 5:30 a.m. check in at 6 a.m. and then Pete didn't race till 9:45 a.m. sooooooo we bummed about and cheered on others! =) Great day!!! Next up...we are both going to start training for adventure racing!
Before the race...while waiting for his teams turn, I made Pete come with me and search high and low for a good cup of coffee!
And yes...he just had to be the first in the water!
