Belinda and I have know Jen for years and years. She helped us teach Ben to swim when he was about six months old. She babysat for years. She modeled for me even longer. She's a hydro-geologist by training and now consults in the old and gas industry. She's gorgeous, rock solid and never met a sport she couldn't master. We thought it would be cool to grab her bike, some clothes and some props and go out and do some gritty, back country triathlete shots.
I grabbed a couple of cameras and a small bag of film and we drove off to find fun. I was reminded of this shoot today because Austin was hosting a triathlon with sprint and olympic distances today. Ben and I had to check the race maps to make sure that our long, Sunday run didn't intersect with the course.
When we got back home mom had home made oat muffins ready for us. I gobbled a couple down, jumped on my bike and headed to a late swim practice this morning. Coach Isaac put us thru the grinder today. An hour and a half of hard sets interspersed with sprint sets. I hobbled home on the bike and took a nap.
