Annabelle and Jonah signed up to do a youth triathlon at the North Liberty Rec Center.
Orange swim caps were ages 12-14. Blue caps swim caps were ages 9-11. Yellow swim caps were ages 6-8.
So excited to start! Let's get this thing going!
They started in heats of about 10, lined up along the pool. Annabelle had to swim a full lap, 50 meters.
This is the transition area, getting ready to bike.
Annabelle biked 2 miles.
Final leg: run 1 mile.
Phew, done! And well done!
Jonah started about 20 minutes after Annabelle. His group got to dive in and swim 25 meters.
Jonah had quick transitions. Here he is on the bike: 1 mile
And now the run: 1/4 mile. Jonah sure sprinted in at the end!
Great job triathletes! Annabelle and Jonah were exhausted at the end. They worked hard and earned their finisher's medal. Yeah!
And here are some other pictures I took before, during and after while we waited. Grandpa Slaugh was here to help play with the little ones during the event.
