I completed on July 12 my First Olympic Distance Triathlon in 2009. This event was held in Interlochen, Michigan and it’s called Inter Rockin. I received a very nice black T shirt from this race!
Below are some of my pictures during the race. Enjoy! I had lots of fun

I want to be running at least 7.5 miles in 1 hour (at least) by December 20, 08 so I have some time to continue to [...]
