Swim-Bike-Run

We had an early start this morning.....5:45 a.m. to be exact. Where you ask? The Mullet Man Triathlon.... The race started at 7:30 a.m. and consisted of a 400 meter swim, 17 mile bike, and a 4 mile run. Here's my handsome hubby looking oh so sexy in his speedo! :)

Ty was in the second wave which included the 30-34 year olds. No he's not 30 yet, but he will be at the end of this year!!!! Yikes! Anyhow, the gulf was a hot mess...RED FLAGS!!!!! The officials were even considering canceling the swim, because of the strong rip currents. Instead they decided to proceed with the swim, and yes it was male officials making this call. Figures! The water must have been extra chilly, because Ty booked it!


Here's a shot of Ty mounting his bike. Please excuse the my lack of photography skills.


Finished!!!!! Overall, Ty did an awesome job. Sixth in his age group out of 32. Not to shabby considering he only trained for 3 weeks. I'm probably to blame for that! Oh well....Ty's still a stud!
