Sept 2001. Laura's first triathlon.

Steve in the transition area.

The swimmers (men 30-39) ready to go!

Women follow 5 minutes behind the men. I'm center, 3 caps away from the camera, in purple.

This is what we look like entering the ocean: like a gang of seals after someone yelled "Fish!".

Steve (in the cap) exits the water.

Laura exits the water - still smiling!

Steve at the transition area: bike to run.

Steve heads for the finish line.

Laura heads for the finish line.

Laura at the end of the race - still smiling!
