  • Comments: They ran a kids triathlon afterwards. It was much longer than last year and more and older kids participated. My 9-year old son won! He was 4th out of the water and passed 2 running up the hill to the transition area. He pass an older boy on the uphill portion of the bike ride, but lost him on the downhill. On the run, I saw him walking up a hill so I thought he was pooping out. They went behind a building and when they popped out the otherside, he was in first. He had a strong fast run to the finish. Daughter was 3rd out of the water, and was neck and neck with an older girl through the bike portion. But the older girl dropped her on the run. She finished 4th overall and was the 2nd girl. So proud of them!!

  • Comments: I'm now hooked on Xterra. Although the course kicked my butt I still feel like I did well. My bike is an all mountain bike which is ok for XC but about 5-6 pounds too heavy. I'm going to make some upgrades. Next year I going to train for this event and try to finish in the top 10!
