On Sunday 8/26, I completed my fourth Triathlon!!! I finished the Accenture Chicago Triathlon in 3 hours 37 minutes and 10 seconds. The race was a 1500 meter swim (approx 1 mile) in Lake Michigan, then a 40k (approx 26 miles) on Lake Shore Drive, and finally a 10k (approx 6 miles) run along the lakefront. Here are some pictures of me!
Just enjoying a little swim!
Just getting out of the water to go and hop on my bike!!!
Rounding the last corner before the finish line- almost done!!!
Below is the video that was shot while I crossed the finish line. It lasts about 30 seconds and you should start to see me about 15 seconds into it. It's hard to tell that it's me, but I am the third person to cross the line in the video clip- the person that crossed right after me raised her arms up in the air.
Steve and I after the race- he's so proud of me!

I think the swimming in Lake Michigan for a mile would do me in alone! Very cool pictures and memories! WAY TO GO!!!

Congratulations Carrie! I wish I could do that, I just don't have the committment to train...someday maybe! I've been having fun "catching up" on all your lives. Keep updating the blog!
