This past weekend Michael took on the World Championship Xterra in Huntsville Ut. If you look really close you can see him in the distance wearing a white swim cap. jk. This triathalon starts out with a half mile swim. Then they move onto an 11 mile mountain bike ride uphill making their way to Snowbasin. Aftert the bike the still have to do a 3.1 mile run (uphill again) to the finish line. That is the sport version, the olympic is twice that. This was his first time doing the Xterra and his response to those who ask him, "How was it?" He says, "I finished!" We were all there to cheer him on and he did awesome. (I think he is going to stick with regular tri's though) This picture is his group getting ready to take off for the swim.
