the race

Pete had Silverman this last week. For those of you who don't know, it is a triathlon that goes from the lake and ends in henderson. It is long, uphill and takes forever if you are a spectator. First he swam, swims? swum? 1.2 miles, then bikes 56 miles, and finishes it off running 13.1 miles (that is half a marathon)
Many have asked me why, why does he do this to himself... well he has endurance, a true athletes heart, and amazing self-discipline. DON"T tell him I said that. If he happened to be around when you asked, I'd say he is crazy, plain and simple. He does seven or so triathlons every year, and this one was his season finale. Next year he will do the FULL Ironman. That is 2.4 miles swim, 112 mile bike, and 26.2 miles run. He is amazing, and I love him so much. So do his boys, they adore him.
