Doug completed the 4th triathlon of his life on June 26th in Plattsmouth (3rd one in Plattsmouth). He did so good! He trimmed a whole minute off his swimming time! He ran so fast, that I didn't even get to take a picture of him running during the race! He swam 500 yards, biked for 15 miles, and then ran for 3.1 miles! All in sweltering heat and humidity!! The kids all wore "Tri Daddy, Tri" shirts to support him. Doug's mom was there to help with the kiddos (which I needed in the worst way! - Thanks Sandy!!). Doug got a LIVESTRONG sticker for his bike that says "I ride for BRYAN BOTKIN" in honor of my 9 year old cousin Bryan who was recently diagnosed with cancer. Afterward, the kids and Doug went swimming in the pool while we waited for the results to be calculated. When we got home, we all collapsed...well everyone except myself! I needed to clean up our mess from the early morning departure for the triathlon. Clair took a little while to fall asleep, but when she did, she was playing with her toys, and basically fell over. She ended up sleeping on some of the toys which I don't think was very comfortable at all! :)
