This past weekend, we proved it isn't all about the bike.  It isn't all about the run.  This weekend, it was all about the kids.  This was the weekend of the Oshkosh Area Triathlon put on by Midwest Sports Events.  Saturday was the kid's tri and Sunday was the sprint distance race.  My own kids raced Saturday, and the Brigade kids raced on Sunday.

I'll start with the kid's tri on Saturday.  Mostly because the pictures from Sunday aren't yet posted.  And it's my own kids.

After this brief race report, I'll post a bunch of pictures from the event.

I want to start by saying that Midwest Sports Events did an AWESOME job for the kids.  From having them use the same assigned transition racks the adults use to a course loaded with volunteers, this race was very well organized.  I saw lots of smiling children, and my kids went away feeling every bit the triathlete.  If you live in the Fox Valley of Wisconsin or attend any race put on by Gloria West and her awesome staff, I strongly recommend letting your kids participate in the kid's events.

And now for the pictures.  There are quite a few, as my kids apparently have better luck getting good pictures.
