Subject: my girls raced today!Excleration KOS tri in East Van. It was Jacqueline's (8) second tri - she came 4/6 in her AG...and Delaney's (7) first -s he came 3/7 in her age group. Delaney did 50m swim, 1.2km bike and 500m run in 12:15 and Jacqueline did 100m swim, 4.2 km bike and 1km run in 23:50. here are some pics! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1202409&id=586906807#pid=1202409 This was put on by a youth tri club - and I would guess about 1/2 the kids belonged to this (or other) club. Several of the 8-9 year olds even rode ROAD bikes! My girls really did nothing to train for this - so I am pretty proud of them! ANd they had fun which is all that matters in the end - they both want to do more races -so that speaks volumes. This is a great race for kids if any of you are looking for kids races! |
