2008 BAM (Battle at Midway) Triathalon...Ty's division: Clydesdale
aka: "Medium Husky"
At 4a.m. this morning Ty and I rolled out of bed after only sleeping for about 1 1/2-2 hrs. We arrived at Soldier Hollow at 5:30a.m., to set up Transition 2 which was the bike/run portion of the race. We then took the shuttle bus to Deer Creek where Ty was to put on his wetsuit to begin the dreadful mile long swim! Does anyone look happy in the first picture? I love how Ty is standing there with his arms folded looking out at the freezing lake. I'm pretty sure I knew what he was thinking!
Race started at 6:40a.m.
1. Swim:1 mile
2. Bike: 24 miles
3. Run: 6 miles
So much for Ty to look forward too!

Wow, what a wonderful accomplishment. I would love to do one someday, do you have to have good knees?
Good job!
Way to represent the "MH" Ty. You are a much better man than I. I'm kinda jealous. Some day I will be motivated enough to do that.
yay! great job ty!! jason will have to get some pointers from you for his tri in july! congrats!
SWEET!!! GOOD JOB TY!! WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN THERE. (TO CHEER YOU ON OF COURSE)...
I am so proud of Ty and his determination to do the BAM Triathalon. He DID IT! Thank you for letting me be a part of this GREAT DAY. I loved being there to cheer him to the finish line!
All I have to say is, "You freakin' rock!" When is your next one? Make Corey do one with you...
What an awesome family to support such a gutsy dad! DeVon and I have been super impressed! We love people who are a positive example to those around us - way to go!
That whole thing was very impressive. If only I could really swim or bike I would try it myself. I think maybe I'll sit on the couch instead.
Way to go Ty, what a HUGE accomplishment!
UMM DID YOU GUYS JUST GO TO ASPEN FOR YOUR 10 YEARS???? I WOULD LOVE TO SEE SOME PICTURES FROM YOUR FUN TRIP!!!! HA HA HA
Hi Carrie, YES we are blog buddies. Sorry i haven't commented!! Congrats TY.. and i love your blog, get busy you have new pictures to put on here.
sorry I was logged in under sami....oops
Yea! I am so glad we can keep in touch better this way. Hey, we still need to catch up over the phone, there is too much to say over the blog :) I have 2 of Angela Haynie's blog sites on mine so you will have to check it out, her last name is West. With the Kessinger's blog I saw Becca in AZ a year ago (she lives here) and she invited me to her family blog but then I was told it was just their family blog and no one looks at it but them...it's still fun to look at :) I miss you so much! I think of you all the time. I am going to Utah next week and I would love to see you so much. When I saw the post you made with Maddie and a baby I thought you had another baby and I felt so bad I haven't kept in touch enough to know what was going on with you. Well, then I read it and realized the baby wasn't yours. I can't wait to look at your whole blog and get updated. I am a crazy blogger I have to make myself only do it once a week but I want to do it more. Lately it has been more since we were in Hawaii. Oh yeah, a couple posts back shows the blog book I made off of blurb.com. If you are a blogger you then have to make a blog book, check out what I did. It is so worth it so that all of your blogging work and journaling doesn't go to waste some day. I am making one once a year. See, we have so much to talk about. Call me!!!
oh yeah, anyone I know on your blog?
one more thing...I forgot my sister Kimberly has a blog too. Her last name is Fugere. Do you mind inviting her to your blog she would love it?! I will let her know about yours too.
