the traverse (a bit late!)


the bellingham traverse was a few weeks back. we were lucky...it was a beautiful, sunny day. i started "team spork" off with the 5.5 mille run from downtown, along the waterfront trail, through fairhaven and up to lake padden. i passed off to tyler, who rode his mountain bike around the trails of lake padden. i waited and was able to see him finish and saw him tag off to kevin - a 17 mile road bike ride around lake samish. then to leah, a 3 mile trail run who passed off to the final leg...bret on the 4 mile kyak leg. we were all waiting at the end to see bret finish, then ran (babies and all!) the last .5 mille to finish together downtown. it was a really fun day - -full of exercise, cheering, hanging with friends and enjoying the fresh air and beautiful scenery of the pacific nw. sidenote: our two cheerleaders, pictured above, were perfect little babes the whole day and drew a lot of attention with their matching team spork t-shirts. leah and i were such proud mamas!
