swim. bike. run.

....and then puke your brains out.

oh wait.  that would be the result if I did this race. (500 m ocean swim, 30k bike, 5k run)


but not if you are the man with extreme athletic endurance, enormous biceps, rock solid abs, an iron will, and incredible handsomeness!

this is a blog right?  I can brag.




This is not his race time, but if you look at the kids, you can see that at the end of 2+ hours, they were spent!

Great job, babe.  We are so happy that someone is representing fitness in our family.

...now back to Oprah and my bowl of Fritos.

Troy is da man!!! Way to go. Behind every good man is a good woman encouraging him on to victory, feeding him good meals, and taking care of the house and the kids. We are doing a triathalon too....with 3 grueling events....eating, sleeping, and forgetting. We practice this daily and we are in pretty good shape....at least in these 3 events. Gotta go...get breakfast.

An ocean swim???? I'm officially jealous. Where was the triathlon? Wish I could have been there too.

Good job Troy! Way to go Ali, being the supportive wife there with the kiddos. :)

Crap, I know what Troy is going through. Well, I didn't really train for mine....he doesn't even look a bit tired. WHAT A MAN! Next year I totally see you at the finish in spandex.

Hey, I was wondering if I sent your kids some tees - would you take me some cute pics. What sizes do they wear? Or we can have a give-a-way on your blog.

Troy is really making all of us 30+ year olds look shabby. Tell him to slow down and age badly like the rest of us!
