Here's Michelle (#355) and a friend after her first triathlon this morning. It was a "beginner's tri", with a 300 meter swim, 11.1 mile bike and a 2 mile run. Approximately 500 participants. Michelle was 20th out of the water, 4th off the bike (woot!) and placed 9th overall! I've gotten this all second hand from her mom, who was with her.
