I just got back from Seattle & Canada where my brother competed in the Ironman Triathlon. For anyone who doesn't know what that entails! It's a 2.4 mile swim, followed by a 112 mile bike run and then a 26 mile run!
It was an emotional, overwhelming and awesome event to witness! To watch what these athletes go through, is just incredible!!
I am so proud of my brother, it was his first time and he finished in 15 hrs. in 90+ heat on a difficult course, he trained hard for a year for this and I wouldn't have missed it for the world!
The race was the day after his birthday and when we got back to Seattle we had an incredible cake made combining his birthday and the race!
"Mike's Amazing Cakes" created it, he has competed on 5-6 Food Network cake challenges and it was very AMAZING!!
Here are the pics:
