THE SWIM
The swim start for the age groupers: 7 a.m.
Our day started at 4:30 a.m. For the Athletes I'm sure it started much earlier. The sea wall was already crowded when we arrived at around 5 a.m.
THE BIKE
Ariel Henbest, the youngest female to compete in the event and a great athlete.
Seeing good friends having fun cheering on the competitors.
THE RUN
Harry on target for a great finish.
Pro triathlete Matt Lieto, from Bend, Oregon.
All sizes and abilities on the same playing field.
THE FINISH
The ultimate goal: THE FINISHLINE!!!
But for the fans, it's all about the swag — the free stuff they throw. Shirts, hats, noisemakers, watches. It's all good.
For the athlete's it's all about seeing family after a long, long day and realize a dream a lifetime in the making.
But, in the end, it's all about being with the one you love.
