So yesterday, Sunday August 19th, I completed my second Sprint Triathlon. Who am I???? When did I become this tri-athlete??? Seriously?? I love that I have something that I can continue to set higher goals and feel great about myself when I achieve them. Who knew I had this kind of motivation. My number one goal, whenever I participate in things like this, is to not stop. I got that one down. My second goal was to improve my time. The first triathlon I had trained for but this second one was a different story. Despite my lack of training I was able to improve my time by over 5 minutes!!


I also love that I have been able to participate in these triathlons with my family. Who knew the John Wallgren family were such tri-athletes! The first one I did was with my mom and sister, Linnea (see early post) and the second one was with my mom again and my dad. They both did great!! Below are some pictures (thanks Linnea) and a big THANK YOU to Linnea and Scott for cheering us on. It was great to have you there supporting us!!!

I love that the whole family is on the band wagon with these races. So funny! And excuse me, but if your mom smiling while running in that last photo? I'm impressed!
