Rigby Lake Triathlon- May 2011

Mike and I competed in the Rigby Lake Triathlon again. It was over Memorial Day weekend and was very cold again like last year. I don't know why we do this one... But this year we were a little bit more prepared than last and we knew what to expect. (Thanks to Chris for taking pictures for us and cheering us on. It's so nice to have someone there at the finish line and to have some pictures of our race!)

Here's Mike, setting up his bike and transition area and freezing his butt off!
Me, wondering why we are here...

Me, not really sprinting so much. But I think I can finally feel my toes here...:
Yaaaay, we're finished! And look, the sun finally decided to come out, now that the race is all finished...:)
The best part of the whole race; a free massage! Aaaaaah!
Mike's in heaven!
Nice job, numbers 80 and 81!

I got first place in my division!! And cut a bunch of time off of my last year's time! WootWoot!

Next year the Rigby Tri will be on July 14th, my birthday and hopefully a lot warmer!!
