Oceanside, CA and Daddy's 1/2 Ironman

We took our big roadtrip down to Oceanside, CA so that Chris could complete his first 1/2 Ironman - 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run. He did great, other than getting 3, yes 3, flat tires on the bike ride! That must have been so frustrating. I think I would have quit after the second flat, but Chris kept going and finished strong. We were so proud of him! It was fun to watch what we could.

Caden slept in the hotel room closet!

Coming in from the run! Great job Daddy!
We are so proud of you!

Go Daddy Go!
All this made Caden exhausted too!
