JP at Crossroads Triathlon; DeWitt, IA Aug 2, 2008

This was my second "Sprint" Triathalon - 500 yd Swim, 15 mile bike ride and a 3 mile run.  Great sunny day with low humidity and no wind!!!  Finished in 1 hr 29 minutes which made me very happy! Carole took all the good pics!

All smiles while setting up for the race

It seems like there is always one HUMBLE guy in every group!  Truth is that I was pumped because a HOT BABE was taking my picture!

This must be why thay call it a "wave" start

Notice the celestial touch on the helmet as I dismounted after the 15 mile bike ride.

(Unlike my 1st tri, I actually passed some people in this one)
