Lotoja

Brade spent a good 6 months avidly training for lotoja. His strength and determination completely amaze me! He trained his bum off and still managed to spend time with us, work full time and juggle 12 college credits. I don't praise him nearly enough. He's incredible. And the best part... he does it without any complaints!

I had been debating about going with him to his race. I had never left Lennon, and with strictly nursing I was so anxious. My cute mom kindly offered to keep lennon and pushed me to go. I am SO glad she did. It was so fun to be there & enjoy time alone!

He was so nervous & ready to go
The race started way before sunrise. Much too early for me! 
1st transition
the scenery was absolutely gorgeous the whole way! 
 "pure relief that the dumb thing was finally over" 

It was such an amazing thing to wait at the finish line and see all the racers cross, especially my cute husband! They were pretty excited to finish quicker than their goal! 
I really hope this won't be his first & last time!
