Whit's Halloween Triathlon

I signed up for a sprint triathlon one day while sitting at a stoplight as a way of lighting a fire under my butt.  After a few months of non-training, I was delighted to learn that my mom and dad were planning to come out and support me.  Thankfully, that lit another fire a month before the race.

Only crazy people volunteer to get up this early... but my mom didn't even think twice.  Just another reason she is so awesome.

And thanks to a run-in with a former colleague, there was another fire lit on the morning of the race.  There was NO WAY I was going to let him pass me.

Natalie got to run and cross the finish line with mommy!
