Jake participated in the Casa Grande Sprint Triathalon this past Saturday. He and his friend Glade went together early and Jake's parents came and took Sammi, Rebecca, Kimball and Tanner. The race includes a 400 meter swim, 10 1/2 mile bike ride and a 3 mile run. Jake did the swim in 8:42 minutes and the bike ride in 33:17 minutes and the run in 20:44 minutes. So, it took him 1 hour and 2 minutes. He came in 25th place out of 442 participants. He was really happy with his times. He and Glade are training for a full triathalon in July in San Fransisco. He ran in the St. George Marathon in October and this weekend he is biking in the Tour de Tucson. The kids love to go watch him when they can and when the baby is a little older I will too!

Congrats Jake, that is a huge undertaking. Can't wait to see all the kids next week!
Hey, do you mind if I swipe some of your pictures?
Jake, that's an amazing time! I'm lucky to run a 5K in that time, let alone after a long bike and swim. Nice job!
That is so great! You're side of the family is sure showing us up with all this athletic stuff... time to make a few changes in our lifestyle!
