our incredible friend Austin Zander did his first Ironman race. that is a swim, bike and run race. And it was POURING rain in Boise on Saturday. We stood out there for 4 hours in the rain cheering him on.
It took for ever to find a parking spot and i got a little ADD and took a lot of random pictures of us. :)
I made an awesome sign to encourage him to keep going.
this is the finish of the bike race part and there were a little over a thousand bikes for at least 2 blocks.

our great friends Boe and charla came out to show their support for our friend
He finished the race in 6 hrs and 40 mins!! I heard someone say the first person to finish, finished in almost 4 hours!! that is nuts. I couldn't believe all the different people who were doing this race. I don't think I could do something like this. We did see a girl wreck on her bike and get a major road rash.

and can i just say you look FREAKING hot in your photos!!
that is so awesome! i have watched the ironman in hawaii a couple timse on t.v. Its amazing what you can train ur body to do. and i didnt know they had an ironman in boise? thats neat.
hey hottie--to do that photo thing i did you have to have an SLR camera, the fancy kind...not just a point and shoot. you leave the shutter open and draw stuff with a light. it has to be dark. and i use a lot of editing programs--including picasa!
