"Try" - althlon

Hot off the press..official time is 14:22


Yesterday Emily (and Maggie and Evie) participated in their first triathlon, or as it was called "Try"-athlon....... just "try" your best. It was held in Bedford and it was an amazingly run event. Emily's age group swam 25 yards, ran 1/2 mile and biked 1 mile. The event was put on by a Bedford group to raise money for bereavement support for children who have lost siblings. Everyone was sooooo friendly and helpful! 
When I asked Emily if she wanted to participate she said yes immediately, which is strange because usually when I ask her if she wants to so something new she says "I'll think about it."
She really loved it. I am not sure how long it took (not long at all) but it was a great experience for all!
