This year, we convinced our friends Heath and Cacee Lee to do the Lake Meridian sprint triathlon with us! Originally, Cacee and I were going to do a relay tri with another friend, but that friend got pregnant and had to resign her spot. I gave Cacee the option to resign (and I would do the whole thing) or still do the run (and I would do the swim and bike). She said, “What if I did the whole triathlon with you?” Great answer! And then her husband said he would do it too. Suddenly it was a double date!
I am sooo proud of my friend Cacee for finishing strong. She was deathly afraid of the swim, new to road biking, and totally nervous. But she did it!
Jim took fifth in his (very competitive) age group, which was awesome. I took a few minutes off my time from last year too!
We had a great time doing this race with friends… and the good news is that they enjoyed it too. We plan to do another one together!
