Veronica had to do a quick dry off, put on her running shoes, grab her helmet and race number and walk her bike to the start of the 14K cycle route. As we hung out at the transition area, we didn’t actually see her on that portion of the race. But we did get to see her several times during the 2.5K run as she had to do three loops (which led to major confusion for several of the runners). She was all smiles as she came into the finish line in 58:31. She came in 5th out of the 12-14 year old girls. It was very exciting that her buddy David came in 3rd in the 12-14 year old boys, Max came in 2nd in the 15-16 year old boys and the school team came in 1st. She said she’d gladly do another triathlon, but unfortunately this is the only mini-sprint in Holland. We went out afterwards with a big group for pizza to celebrate.
