I AM IRONMAN!!!!

Sunday was the annual Ironman Wisconsin. This year our friend (and Jeni's maid of honor) Katherine's husband, Chris, was competing. This was great for many reasons: we got to see Katherine, I got to meet Chris, and we saw some great athletes.

Unfortunately, Madison has had rain for the last several days which put a damper on the day. Still, Chris overcame the weather and a flat tire on the bike portion to finish in under 12 hours (the pro who came in first finished in 9 hours).

Enjoy the pictures...

Mason got to wear his red hooded sweatshirt.

Chris and Katherine are from Barrie, Ontario, Canada.

Mason helped us plan where to see Chris on the route around Madison.

The run came right down State Street. This was an opportunity for Katherine to give Chris a dry sweatshirt to run in.

Chris finished around 7:00 pm. Because of the weather, it was already dark and Mason was at home trying to fall asleep.

So, yeah, maybe, uh, next year, I'll, uh, sign up...
