GO! McKENZIE GO!

McKenzie competed in her first triathlon in Bountiful this past weekend with about 450 other athletes. It was done in reverse order and was a sprint triathlon. They ran a 5k(3.2 miles) first, then biked 10 miles and finally swam 350 yards. It was fun to watch all the athletes as they transistioned for each leg of the race.
McKenzie has been training and training for this and really didn't know what to expect but she did awesome. She finished first in her age division and 9th overall for the women.
