I am just posting these so my MFP friends can see them As much as I love MFP, I wish their picture posting format was as user friendly as Facebook. I did my first Sprint Triathlon last weekend and I finally got hold of some photos from the race.

Run, Forest, Run



My entourage welcoming me at the finish line. You can see to the right the tall dude in the hoodie and khaki shorts is my son encouraging me on



Race organizer, Mick, called me up in front of everyone after the race to share my story. He gave my son and I two free passes to do the race together next year.



If you care to read the story behind my first Sprint Tri, here it is:

I was so excited when they finally posted the pictures. I wish they had one of me riding the bike but they said this was just the first wave of the volunteer pictures coming in but I am quite happy with the pic of me running. I don't look terrible. LOL Not that is why I did it.....

Thanks for looking Kim and Sherry

Triathlete magazine, issue June 2010. The back cover is a picture of Chrissie Wellington crossing the line, winning her 4th Ironman championship. The caption says:

"Some of the most beautiful women in the world have numbers pinned to their bellies."


Yeah. I think that describes you quite nicely.
