Sept. 20:

Two Days, Two Triathlons. Not as a participant, but as a kayak 'swim rescue' volunteer. Saturday was the MMLF triathlon (tri, tri, and tri again) at Cottage Lake in Woodinville. It was rainy, and cold, but still worth getting up at the crack-of-dawn-thirty.

As for today, sunny and warm for the Trekwomen Triathlon in Lake Washington. Saul was there with the kayaks, and around 15 other volunteers for kayaks. Add to that the 20-40 lifeguards, and the 1000+ participants, and you begin to get an idea of the mass of wonderfully healthy, happy people on the water this morning. What a GREAT DAY! Say Mary Meyers again, and her dog (the MM in MMLF is for Mary Meyers). She was a kayak / lifeguard supporter today - I need to ask her for another 'swag-hat' from the MMLF triathlon because at least one other person is threatening to steal mine... they like it that much.

So the load-out went smoothly, and I just got dropped off at the Greenlake Starbucks. I'm composing here while the Disney photos (from 3 weeks ago - WOW where has the time GONE!) upload to Costco for printing. Enjoy the sun!
