i haven't blogged in a while.... i'm hoping to catch up soon, if only for my own "journaling" purposes. i'll start with the most recent and most exciting (at least for me)! i raced in the 5th annual bear lake brawl. my goal was to finish faster than last year. i cut time in each event shaving almost 10 minutes off of my total time. i was quite happy! i'm thinking about competing in the olympic distance next year instead of the sprint.... i'll have to see where life has taken me next year!
this is everyone who competed from my family. sjaanie, me, dad, mom, aunt renee, and cousin jen. this year was so much more fun than last and a big part of that was the company. it also helped to not be so nervous. i was much, much more prepared for my open water swim this time. i shaved almost 5 minutes on my swim. i felt great and felt like i could've swam another 1/2 mile!
after our pre-race warm up. i wasn't going to let the fishies and reeds bother me! i felt like my bike was good, and my run went alright. it was super hot and i ended up doing a run/walk.... i'm hoping to improve strength on my bike and endurance on my run for next year.
my cute little family!
sjaanie, dad, mom, and me. i was so proud of my parents! my mom took 1st in her age division and my dad took 2nd. hello! they're in their 60's and totally rocked it! sjaanie did very well, too :)
my mom and her sister renee.

How cool! You and your family members are so hard core. It looks like you had a great time.
congratulations! What an accomplishment! How awesome! I agree, you do have amazing parents! I love them! I love the skiing pictures. I also have memories of skiing behind your dad's boat and getting pointers from him. Amazing how influential your parents were on me as a little girl. Glad to see all the fun!
Amazing! Way to go!!
GREAT job girl!! You seriously rock :)
Congrats on the triathalon. Please tell your parents that they are awesome. Bart and I didn't know that they had done so well.
