Due to scheduling conflicts, the Snake Valley Triathlon was pushed back into September, which meant that the water at Silver Creek Reservoir was a wee bit chilly (that is definitely an understatement). Nevertheless, a few brave souls decided to give the triathlon a try, swimming across the reservoir, running about 2.5 miles down to the substation, and then riding a 10.8-mile triangle route that ended up back at the substation.
The weather was perfect for the run and bike. My husband "lost" the camera, so we didn't end up with too many photos.
The top three finishers pose after the event.
Next year we'll try to have it in July or August. The weather for the bike and run may not be quite as nice, but at least the water won't be so chilly!
By the way, for those of you interested in Snake Valley races, EskDale is planning a 5K/10K Turkey Trot on (or near) Thanksgiving. Stay tuned for details!
