2009 Sprint Tri, Part Three - The Bike

After the swim, Marc had to go into the transition area, put on all the bicycle paraphernalia and do the 10 mile bike ride - 5 miles out and 5 back.

I thought he looked great in his new bike helmet. And I know only I care about this, but it matched the tri suit so well!


This was Marc's first time on a bicycle since Ironman. While he has continued to run and swim, he hasn't taken a spin class or a bike ride in almost a year. For this sprint, the ride went very well, but the transition from the bike to the run was a little rough.

We girls always notice the extras. His new helmet matched perfectly.

Thanks Michele! The helmet and the tri suit also match the bike. I was proud of the coordination. :-)
