Triathlon #2 - CornMan

Josh successfully completed his second triathlon of the summer this morning. It was HOT, windy, hilly and not very fun (at least according to Josh!). He wasn't happy about how he performed, but he still beat his training partner/friend so that makes the day a little bit better :) He didn't get punched/kicked as much in the water this time, but had an equipment malfunction with his goggles (they fogged up and got water in them causing him to have to stop swimming twice). Now it's on to training for the big one 6 weeks away.... it's over 3 times as long as the one he did today. Insane, oh yes, I know! And he knows too, but he still insists on doing it!


Just out of the water and transitioning into the bike. I think the look on his face explains exactly how he felt about the swim :)


Getting ready for the bike


Coming back in from the bike. He looked good and his time was great at this point in time (little did we know how bad the run would be ;) He's trying to get his shoes unstrapped as he rides into the transition area.


Running out of the transition area and getting ready to tackle all those hills on foot :) Isn't the background here beautiful? If it wouldn't have been so hot we probably would've enjoyed it a little more!


Off on the run...


Heading to the finish line!

Josh really is a little crazy isn't he!

I hope the next one is as hot for him!

Good luck Josh,

Gabe.
