You Go, Stockton!




About two months ago, Stockton heard about the St. George Triathlon, so he decided to enter it....

he had:

no racing bike

no friends doing it

no previous experience in triathlons, but he plays soccer and is on the cross country track team (good for the running part), is on the swim team (good for the swimming part), and he had previously learned to ride a bike (good for the biking part.)

Doing something like this requires a lot of discipline. I'm so impressed with young people who show great discipline in their lives. It is not easy in this day and age, but....

Stockton did so great...it was fun to see him bike and run. (Unfortunately, we missed the swimming part.)

He came in 2nd in his age group.

And, yes, he plans to do it next year!

We are proud of you, Stockton!
