Andrew's Ironman 70/3 Haines City - Sunday

From my Facebook: Happy to see my family at Andrew's Ironman 70.3 in Haines City this past weekend. Chloe was adorable (pool and playground fun!), we had great weather and I got my first look at this competition - what a party atmosphere (I'm used to very quiet golf tournaments). My Maine nephew performed at the top of his age group. Hope he continues excelling at having fun, competing and keeping fit! Congratulations to Andrew Word!
From my Mom: Congratulations Andrew.  You did it.  Not the same but tracking was good and Alyson, Chloe, Britney did great  with narration and photos. Ford Alyson Cobb Morgan Britney Carter Andrew Word MC Cobbie Cobb thanks Wendy Ward  for statistical info and for great support from  Britney’s grands the Wards

Chloe played very happily on the playgrounds.
