Utah Half Triathlon

Last weekend was the Utah Half Triathlon. 1.2 mile swim in Utah Lake, 56 mile bike ride, and a half marathon. Al and I had been watching the weather report all week which said rainy and windy which means they would either A-cancel the race or B-cancel the swim. Luckily it poured rain the night before and the sky was clear for the swim. There was even a rainbow which had to mean good luck. Ross after the swim. Ross is doing the Kona Ironman in October which is amazing. We are excited for him.
I'm going to refer to my Al as little Al and Al's dad as Big Al, otherwise it get's too confusing. Here is Little Al after the swim.

Almost to the finish line and done in the time they set for themselves.
I'm so proud of Al. He barely trained and completed a half triathlon. AMAZING!! Great job guys. Next races San Diego triathlon, LA triathlon, and NYC marathon. Al has a busy few months ahead of him.
