Real Women Duathlon

Today April 3 Mum1 completes the first of many 'fun' events in style and make me so proud.

Here we are before the race briefing working out which way round biking
gloves go on.
Mum1 hasn't even pinned her race number on yet but I can't
be too sarcastic because I've put mine on the back of my shirt and apparently
everyone else thinks they should go on the front.

I then spend a considerable amount of time outlining our tactics to Mum1.

I don't know why she is laughing. She then listens to the race briefing and does the

warmup. I really admire people who do that.

Here we are on the second run leg. It appears as if we are walking but we just
slowed down to give the camera a chance to catch the image clearly.
And we are obviously so far out in front there is no need to hurry.

No film exists of us biking the 20kms- (It was a fantastic ride and Mum1 found some
extra speed on the home stretch; good for her)- but ...there is a clip of the finish line!

It was an exceptional day and Mum1 was brilliant.
Heartfelt thanks to all the people who turned up to support us or sent texts.

(A meeting will be held this week at Pippi's Bar to decide on the next event.. the Tough Guy in
Rotorua has been mentioned. If this is agreed by Bike On Mums HQ then for
Mums3 and 4 this will be a compulsory event.)
