Mother/Daughter Triathlon

I grew up with very active parents, which I have always LOVED!!  I remember when I was younger always cheering both my parents on at different races. The one race I have the most memories of was a Triathlon that my parents did every year and the gross lake that had to swim in.  Years later my mom's health started to decline and she wasn't able to be as active as she would have liked.

Fast forward 20 years and all of my mom's prayers have been answered!  She was finally able to find a doctor that specialized in her disease, which changed her life!  Once mom started feeling better, the mom I had grown up with was back!!  She was signing up for race and race, so of course I had to sign up with her.

Today my mom and I were able to finish her first Triathlon in 20 years, and our first triathlon together.  It was so fun being able to race with her and having dad on the sidelines cheering us on.  I will always remember this day and cannot wait to sign up with more races with her!
