This weekend a group of us went to American Fork for a Kids Triathlon! I can't even describe in words how impressed I was with these kids for accomplishing this! Here are some pictures to enjoy!
There was Coleman Scott, and the Nielsen kids, Jordan and Sydne. After the adults finished their triathlon, the kids had their turn. It started indoors at the Olympic size pool...............
Kaden had about 4 weeks of good swim training so when we saw the size of this pool I panicked a little, but after watching him stick with it and complete the lap and back that they all did I was near tears......
After the swimming they all ran to the transition area where their bikes, clothes, and gear was waiting....It wasn't the warmest either so you can imagine being so cold. After they were dressed and helmet and bike they took off for the 5K route. I was able to go on this with Kaden. It was a blast! Once they completed the route it was back to transition to leave the bikes and now run a mile loop around the cemetery. I was able to do this as well. Kaden kept telling me how neat it was and how it made him feel so good to see peop
le cheering him on, and he also said, "Mom I am so glad you are here with me!" That made me feel amazing. Overall I think this will be something we look forward to doing again!
