Durango Triathlon

Bill and I started out August with another triathlon, this time in Durango, Colorado. The race consisted of a 500 meter pool swim, a 13 mile bike ride, and 5k run. The course was a lot less challenging than Hillman, and therefore faster and more fun. Adding to the fun were all the other folks from Blanding who were there. This small town of ours has an unusually large number of triathletes, and many of them made the trek over to Durango (about a 2.5 hour drive) for the race.

The San Juan County folks. Bill was off perfecting his transition area and missed this photo op.

Me, Sunny, and Cristi striking a tough chick pose after the race. These gals are awesome friends and training buddies, and they did great in the race. And yes, we're all wearing variations of the same top. We were wearing the same tri shorts too. We're just cute like that.

Me and Bill. "Triathlon #2 Baby!"
