Boise

I haven't posted anything for a while. Summer gets kind of hectic sometimes. This is a little bit of what Spencer has been doing. He swims almost everyday (when he is not in Chicago for work) and he rides the bike and runs a ton too. He has certainly found a passion. This was the half-ironman that we went to in June. I loved cheering him on but the kids got pretty bored and pretty wet. It rained the entire time. (A little over 4 1/2 hours). Maybe we will leave them home next time.
This is Spencer's age-group getting ready to swim. Getting the wetsuit off. Can be challenging.











He was a bit tired at the end. The race was 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike and 13 mile run. He finished really well. He placed 66th out of about 1300 participants and 2nd on the bike for non-professionals. Not too bad for his 2nd triathlon.
