Three is a Magic Number!

On Sunday, Lowell did his THIRD triathlon of the month! The sun managed to squeak through the clouds at the very end of the race, but at least the rain held off. As a picture-taking spectator, my hands were numb, but otherwise the weather was tolerable I suppose.

So, let's get started with the triathlon shall we? And by the way, it's SO much more fun watching a triathlon & taking pictures when you have a camera that a) takes pictures quickly, b) is ready to take another one right away, c) has amazing zoom, d) has burst mode and other desirable features, and e) doesn't suck.

Waiting to start the 1km swim:

And he's off!

I think that this is my favourite picture of the day. I was so proud of myself for getting a picture when he was facing me. Again, thanks to our beautiful new camera!

Done the swim; getting ready for the bike! (Doesn't he look goooooood? He's such a flippin attractive boy!)

Here he goes on the 25km bike!

Aw, he's always smiling!


Lowell's turning the corner to start another loop of the bike. This is what it looked like outside through his sunny glasses. Keeps one optimistic I guess:

And here he is coming back from the 8km run!

Here's my triathlon superstar!!
