Nash competed in his first triatholon today. He did so good. We were really nervous for him cause he's so competitive and we were worried that he would be mad if someone passed him, or if he got tired he would want to stop. But he didn't complain once, and did awesome. They set it up really good....there were 180 kids competing and they staggered the races so you wouldn't know if someone passing you was from your group or another group. The race was not timed, so that helped.
Here's Nash ( i know...it doesn't really look like him) and his good friend Cam before the race started. Swimming was first, and they swam 50 yards.
Nash is the one in the front!!! He's always been a good swimmer so this was his best event. He came in 1st of his group!
Here he is in the biking part. They had to bike .8 miles.
After biking was the last leg of the race....running!!!! He had to run 1/2 a mile. He was smiling the whole time!!!
Nash and Cam at the finish line!!!!! GOOD JOB NASH....I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!
