I'm signed up for the tri.   Or I should say Kimberlee kicked my ass into gear and signed me up!  Time to start running, and more importantly swimming! Swim cap and swimming goggles are needed...

2009 Huntersville Kids Tri #1

I was quick to talk about lacrosse in my previous post and completely forgot to add in that the first Huntersville Kids Tri was Saturday evening.  121 kids were out in full force for the first race of the series and I'm stoked to say both the boys raced and did awesome! Drew finished 2nd by only 3 seconds off 1st!  We had a slight incident of tripping through the finish line.. We need to work on our swim and he'll be winning for sure next time. Matthew (the fish) came in 6th but looking at his splits he did well every where.  There were a lot of kids on the course during his race so the bike wasn't his strong suit but practice will make perfect but he came 1st in the run! The best part of this is the fact it was 4 hours after their lacrosse game in the heat on Saturday morning.

Lacrosse Weekend

Media_httparsbarscomw_gztxi

A weekend full of lacrosse games with the boys.  They play for a Mooresville team called Lake Norman United. Their first game was at home on Saturday they won to 11-2, both boys scored I can't remember exact numbers but they did great.  Sunday we traveled to south Charlotte and tied 5-5.   It was a full weekend.   Lake Norman United or United is in it's second year I believe.  The coaches are awesome and it seems like there is a lot of experience through out the league.  Lacrosse is still picking up down here in the south, nothing at all like it was back in Maryland.  Maybe one day.
