triathlete

This Labor Day, my wonderful husband completed his ninth triathlon! Later this fall, he will be competing in the Longhorn Half Ironman, his first race of that distance. He discovered his passion for triathlons just before our first son was born, and it hasn't always been easy for him to find the time to train and race as much as he'd like, but he's managed to strike a balance and continue to pursue his goals. And it's been fun for me to be exposed to the sport, even though it's not something I would ever do myself.

I am so proud of him, and I think he's setting a wonderful example for our boys of what you can accomplish through hard work and determination. Keep up the good work, honey!
