Saturday Morning; Bridgeport or Bust!


On Saturday morning, Karl, Leezie, and I sprung out of bed at 5:15 a.m. to make our way to Bridgeport, CT, where Bec was competing in an ITU race (for you tri novices, ITU=Internationl Triathlon Union=big deal). Getting up there was a breeze--absolutely no traffic and we didn't get lost! I'd say that Bridgeport itself is one of the least desireable destinations in Connecticut (or up and down the Eastern Seaboard, for that matter), but the park where the race was held was clean and scenic (much unlike the decrepit surrounding town). The morning was spent cheering Bec along her way to a fifth-place finish, catching up with Bubba, and trying to avoid the blazing sun. Speaking of blazing sun, here's a pic of Bec running beneath it--I was feeling for her! More pictures below.
