The BOD - Bonelli Olympic Distance Triathlon

 

The Softride doesn't fit on the bike rack, so Marcus always has to take it apart and put it back together.

 

We finally got to a race early. Note the empty transition area. Chill time.

 

The duct tape arrow on the ground and orange swim cap denote where our transition areas are.

 

Hmmm...Something's fishy.

 

Don't even ask.

 

Here is the play-by-play: Karl is first out of the water, as always.

 

 

Marcus follows several minutes behind.

 

Brent a few minutes later.

 

Karl pushes on the bike.

 

But Marcus smells blood!

 

Dan is hot on our tail also.

 

 

Brent shakes his fist in anger as he is too far behind.

 

Karl is still pushing.

 

Marcus is still following.

 

And Brent is still finding time to showboat for the camera.

 

After weeks of intensive RA training and little else, Karl is feeling the pain of the run.

 

But twinkle-toes feels great.

 

Dan decides to leave the course and run around the airport for a few extra miles.

 

Yeah right Brent, you still have several more miles to go.

 

What is this? Marcus beats Karl to the line for the first time!

 

Karl tries to blame his perfomance on his watch.

 

Dan crosses the finish line fast enough to place, but having run several extra miles.

 

Where's the showboating now, huh?

 

Marcus and Dan chill after the race. Results take too long.

 

Karl is totally pooped.

 

'Nough said.

 

UCLA grabs three medals.

 

Karl shows off his medal.

 

Brent shows off the hardware he wishes he had. Another successful day for UCLA.
