South Beach Sprint Triathlon September 2007

We had a great day this past Saturday, we woke up at 6 am, hopped on our bikes and road a few blocks to the beach. Just as the sunrise was coming up over the ocean, we jumped in and started a triathlon. It was great, the water was shallow and warm, but still a challenge with the ocean swells. The bike was 11 miles over a bridge connecting South Beach to downtown Miami. Then the run was along our very own South Beach, which we get to run every week.

Best of all, Stacy won her age group!

After the triathlon, we went home, showered, ate, and then came back to the beach to watch a professional volleyball tournament going on that day.
