I am often asked why I want to teach the population that I do. Take a look at these pictures. The children are awesome and so much fun to be with.
On Thursday, my class, along with all the other Living Skills classes in the county, went to the corn maze. This was probably a first for many of the students.
6:30 a.m. - Registration
Mom, Dad and Amy came out to cheer us on. My mom had tried to convince me that I should swim in a life jacket!
Jay and Jennifer Norris
Dan and Sarah Watkins
We had several comments on our shirts!
The fog was terrible! I am in that mess somewhere. The fog made the swim very difficult.
Almost to the finish line!
Passing the timing chip to Jay.
I was so happy my part of the race was over!
This was the half way point. 28 miles.
Joel was such a great supporter! Check out that shirt! I have the greatest husband!
Passing the timing chip to Dan.
Only 6-7 miles to go!
I couldn't forget Joel's birthday!
We finished just under 6.5 hrs.
Team Tri for Him ...
Tomorrow morning, two friends from church and I are competing in the 1/2 Iron Man Triathlon at Melton Hill Park. I don't know why I am doing this or what I have gotten myself into, but I am very, very nervous. I am worried about the temperature of the lake water. I hate being cold!
Anyways, we are competing as a relay team. I am swimming 1.2 miles, Jay Norris is biking 56 miles and Dan Watkins in running 13 miles. I have the easy part!! I have trained for 5 weeks and am feeling pretty good about the swim!
Tomorrow is Joel's birthday and he is stuck at this race all day. What a great husband I have! He could be doing so many other things on his birthday.
Stay tuned...pictures and results to soon follow.
Sara and I stuck together through the entire race. She wouldn't let me walk...even though I wanted to a times!
Rusty and Kyle were there too.
Here's Sara and I making our way through the last part of the race that is in the lake.
We were muddy, but not like we had expected.
