This past weekend we were in St. George with Lynn and Jake. They were there to participate in the 1st Ironman competition (ever in St. George_) Just the logistics of the whole thing is amazing. There were 2200 participants. We were excited to be there with them and root for Jakes' success.

The competition consists of a 2.4mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and 26.2 run. Makes me tired just thinking of it. Jake did a fantastic Job of preparing for a year.


This is Lynn sitting on the shuttle with her friend kristen(whose husband also competed_) on our way to the start of the swim.

Here you will see the beginning of the event








The masses in the water








Jakes' parents were there also.








Coming in and going out of transition 2 (after the bike and onto the run__)










Pictures of the finisher are on someone elses camera. we were scattered all over the place.
Good thing for cell phones or we would have never found each other.
