Tracy gets 'inked.'
Spinning for prizes
Lisa, a Danskin Tri veteran, gives Tracy pointers on the route.
Tom came to visit us on the same weekend as the triathlon...his support and spirited cheers kept Tracy smiling along the way! Here he helps Tracy put her number on her bike.

Let the games begin...
Can you find Tracy?
How 'bout now?
This is the transition area where the triathletes go from swim-to-bike and bike-to-run. Some people creatively marked their spots with balloons.
Tracy begins the bike portion of the race,
with Merrilee not far behind.
Wow, that was a quick ride!
A smile, probably in reaction to Tom's energetic cheering :)
Tracy was so fast, Scott (the photographer) missed her crossing the finish line. But here she sighs in pleasant exhaustion.
Aah, yes...Sally. Sally is the Danskin National Spokeswoman, but we call her the unofficial Danskin cheerleader. She started the race off with cheers and high fives for all, finished it off with much of the same, and participated in the triathlon in the meantime. She's placed in several Ironman tri's, and she's a maniac!
Tracy at the finish line with Tom and Meg. Thanks for the support you two!

"Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever."
