Mckayla did her second triathlon yesterday at the West Valley City Recreation Center.
She had a blast and did very well. We are so proud of her and her dedication!
Leslie here - my little cutie. I had to highlight a couple things.
1. She's such a purist.....hmm, wonder who she gets that from :) Anyway, all the other kids set their bikes down on the ground, not our Mckayla.
She insisted her bike be racked in transition.

2. We realized a minute before the swim that we didn't bring any kind of floatation. I panicked a little, mentioned running out to get her arm floaties, but she said she wouldn't be able to reach her arms through the water, so no floating for her :)
3. She insisted we stay behind her, she wanted to race on her own.
4. You'll also notice her little bike crash at the first turn.
What a stud, she didn't even cry, just got up and kept going.

5. Love this kid. You'll also notice her dodge the high-5's at the finish line. She had her eye on the prize and wasn't going to let anyone get in her way :)
Oh, and.....
Oh, and.....
Good job babe on the video!

That's so awesome! Watching Caleb do his little triathlon is one of my high points of parenting so far. It's just amazing how determined these little ones can be.
What did your husband use to put the video together? It's great!
Great job Makayla!!! What were her distances? Cute video, and doing it all in the rain. Definitely hardcore!! I gotta get Logan swimming so he can join me in the races.
Aw cute!! I think a kid tri isn't in the cards for Ethan this year due to his soccer schedule, but I definitely want to do another one with him.
That is awesome seriously she is so dedicated!! WOW
