So Friday night we are hanging out with some friends and someone for some reasons mentions there is a mini triathlon at the school the next day and the entry fee is only $5 so what does Jacob do? He enters of course....no prior training....the sole goal of just finishing....and what happens?....
He takes first in the swim for his heat.....
Then he gets to the bike and....it was close but he again comes in first.
Next was the run, and the only one who beat him was this guy who...well lets say he looked like he had been training for something like this for quite some time. Evie and I got to go and cheer him on and we were so proud of him. He completed a 300 yard swim, a 5 mile bike ride and a 3k run in 34 minutes and 17 seconds. Remember this was with no training...pretty awesome if I say so myself! There is another one in February that is a little longer so I think he is going to try train for it and compete again!
Still standing at the finish line!
