Danskin Triathlon

The Danskin Triathlon was on Sunday… and it was hot. I mean hot, hot, hot.

Did I mention it was hot? Thank goodness I was in the shade most of the day. But my wife wasn’t. Oh, no… she had to swim, bike and run. This was her first triathlon and she enjoyed it so much that she is already thinking about her next one. Yeah, you heard me right. She enjoyed it.

Personally, I think she’s nuts. Reminds me of that scene from Back to Future 3 when Doc is in the old west saloon and all the old timer drunks are listening to him rant about the future.

Doc: “And in the future, we don’t need horses. We have motorized carriages called automobiles.”
Saloon Old Timer: “If everybody’s got one of these auto-whatsits, does anybody walk or run anymore?”
Doc: “Of course we run. But for recreation. For fun.”
Saloon Old Timer: “Run for fun? What the hell kind of fun is that?”

And all the drunks laugh hysterically.

And so do I. So do I.

I am proud of her though. It took a slice of courage to take on a challenge like that. And she did spectacularly!
