As Matt continues to train for his ironman he is doing a lot of races and this sat. was a duathon, two events, biking and running. A 5K run, then a 25K bike ride, then another 5K run. He had to get a flu shot and got a mild case of the flu and didn't feel very good for the race but wanted to have the experience anyway and he ended up having his best 5K time ever. he's the man...
the race was at Hickam Air Force base, it was really pretty in the morning with what i thought was a beautiful breeze as i sat and read, the bikers apparently don't love going against the wind!
Napolean Dynamite was at the race, and he did really well!!
and their off!
i got to watch matt go by on the bike several times, he did great he just wishes he would have worn his padded shorts!
running to the finish! it was a small race but he looks like he is alone most of the time.
he had to leave his baby at the bike station, fortunately everyone else had really nice bikes too so he felt like it should still be there when he got back.good training at a time of 1:46!
