We just got back from our first triathlon of the season -- the Galena Triathlon. Brian, Christie and Ali competed and all came in under two hours, which is extremely impressive on this hilly long sprint course. It was Ali's first triathlon ever, which was really amazing. I still haven't worked up enough guts to do it. We rented a house for a couple nights, and had such a great weekend. The first day was packet pick up, gear drop off, pre-race dinner at home and early to bed. The next day was triathlon and recovery. The kids were all so awesome while we sat in the misting rain and cheered our family and friends on. After the race, we went relaxed at the house, then went into Galena and bummed around a bit, then went to dinner at Fritz & Frites. H, who never naps or wants to sleep, feel asleep on the chair in the restaurant. It was a fun exhausting weekend.
