IronMan 2011

This year for the Iron Man Moss and I decided to let Brenden sleep over at Bonnie' house and we would go camp out at the lake. It was really fun to switch things up a bit and spend time with Moss' parents and Supe. After chatting for a hour or so we all headed off to bed to get a few hours of sleep. Moss and I just slept in the back of our car and watch a little bit of a movie. It was pretty sweet and I think I will like camping much more with a our new living quarters. At 4 am we got up and got moving. We had a few meetings and had breakfast and then were boated over to the docks where we would be positioned this year.

We hung out for about an hour. Moss was beaming about to do what he loves best haha.

Then it was time for the rest to start, since we were lifeguards we got a sweet view of the start.



We then got in position on the docks and did our job. It was a lot less exciting this year seeing as we only pulled out 14 people. Last year we pulled out over 70. It was nice for the athletes though and it was fun to cheer for them coming in.
After it was over we got on a platoon boat to get taken back to our cars. We were in the dead center of the lake when almost half the boat nose dived into the water. My worst fear was upon me. We freaked out for a second but after moving some people around and jump starting the boat we were all better. I was a little freaked after that and held close to Moss. It was fun to be apart of again this year. We even got a little sleep and made it down to the finish line for a little while.
Moss was excited to see that most the people he was training finished in pretty good times too.
