Ironman 70.3 in Miami, FL (Oct. 28, 2012)


Justin and his friend Walt decided to do the Miami 70.3 Ironman... for those that don't know, that's a total of 70.3 miles that they will complete in one day... a 1.2 mile swim, a 56 mile bike ride, and a 13.1 mile run!  Here's Justin getting set up VERY early in the morning!

Here's the two crazy guys before the race...

Justin preparing to go in the water...

Swimmers in the water...

And this is actually Justin swimming... the one on the bottom right... go baby, go!!!

He's out of the water and heading toward the bike transition!

Changing up...

And now Justin is off on the bike... see you in 56 miles, honey!

That's Justin (blue shirt, white helmet... upper left) coming in after the bike ride

And here he is ... after swimming, biking, and now running!

THIS IS THE BEST THING THEY WILL SEE ALL DAY!!!!!

Wooohooo!!!!  Justin sporting his awesome medal!

Coming out of the water (the very first event) Justin cut his foot on the grates of the stairs...The Dr. that looked at it after the race said he needed stitches, but can you believe Justin had biked and run with this injury!

So proud of my awesome husband!!!!

Justin and Walt... happy to have this 70.3 DONE!!!!
