Studmen & Studwoman

Okay-it sounds a bit cheesy, but check out these great athletes that completed the Idaho Spudman triathlon competition this last weekend. Brian Flamm wouldn't pose for the picture, but he was there also.


We made the trek up to Burley Idaho the day before the race to check in and get ready. The athletes and athletic supporters (haha) enjoyed a carb-loaded meal!

The night was spent setting up gear at the different transition areas! Look at all those bikes!


First comes the swim. I think those of you that participated in this event last year gave us enough warning, or should I say scare, about the open water swim that everyone was planning a swim strategy. (Even I was and I was just watching).

This picture just doesn't do it justice-there are hundreds of people getting ready to swim.

Then comes the bike and run portion of the race. I wasn't able to catch great photo's while they were riding their bikes because they were flying-but this is the "studmen" and "studwoman" at the finish line-looking great. Great job guys! We truly loved watching you!
