Ironman 2012

We have been talking about getting a bike trailer for the past few months now and this past weekend provided the motivation to finally do so.  The Woodlands Ironman was on Saturday and we wanted to go and cheer the racers on but really didn't want to fight the traffic and drive.  The bike course was about 5 miles from our house-too far to walk or run but perfect for a bike ride-so we went out Friday night and bought a bike trailer and love it!!

Joseph loved it so much that he passed out-can you see him in there?!?

 He woke up just in time for the leader of the bikes to come by (and to be entertained by Daddy for a bit!)

 The first biker!  For those of you that don't know an Ironman consists of a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run.  Rich completed one in 2004 and after Saturday is motivated to train for next year's race with his buddy.  We'll see...

And then taking a break and looking at the water!  

It was a great way to spend our Saturday morning!
