Hey all-
So tonight I had the chance to help out at our newly formed tri club with the kids clinic.
They are putting on a kids tri at the end of Aug, so they are having clinics to help the kids get ready. They do a full mini tri. 3 laps in the pool (75 m) 2 laps around our lake (about 2.5 miles) and a quarter ( maybe a bit more) mile run. We had about 15 kids ranging from 6-14. A couple of the little girls were so freaking CUTE! They're like little pixies. Of course there are some fasty pants hot shots, but most kids were just there to have fun.
It was 104 when they started, so it was rough on them, but they all did great.
It was just SOO FREAKING COOL to see these kids enjoying the sport just like I do.
Now I know your thinking "is YOUR son doing it??''... Well maybe. He was adamant that he wasn't, but dad put the hammer on him today and now I think he might. We will see how he does with the swimming.
