The Trying Tryathlon - Thursday 26th February

Today we competed in the Year 3/4 Tryathlon.  First we rode our speedy bikes twice around the field.  We quickly jumped off and the senior children helped us take our helmets off and they parked the bikes for us.  We then took off on the racy run around the turf and junior classes and then we needed to find our bag of clothes to transition for the swim.  When we had whipped off our t-shirts and shoes and socks we took off round past Room 21 for the swimming pool.  We walked our way to the deeper end and got our way down to the shallow end - anyway we possibly could.  Once we were out of the pool we raced to the finish through Room 19 and then collected our bags = PHEW we are tryathlon experts now!!!!
