Yesterday Derek participated in the Jetton Triathlon at Lake Norman. It was Van's first experience watching his daddy race. The day could not have been more beautiful. I throughly enjoy going to all Derek's events, not only for the pride I feel watching my husband challenge himself physically but people are always so friendly.
Derek did a great job as usual though he says he needs to start running after his bike rides in order to train better for the next race. Which I believe is next month! He is doing three sprint triathlons (swim 500-700 yards, bike 12-15 miles and run a 5k) to train for his Half-Iron Man (1.5 mile swim, 56 mile bike and 13.1 mile run) coming up in September.
