the RAGE

Swim-Bike-Run
A few weeks ago Jeff and his dad did a Half Ironman in Vegas. We didn't get to go cheer him on this time, but Jeff's mom, Karen did, and she got some pictures of the race. Had good night sleep in the Holiday Inn Express. Now it is RACE Day!

Way to go Dave and Jeff ! You guys did awesome! Congrats. Now let the training continue for the Full Ironman in September. Good Luck!









The next weekend Dave and Karen came out to watch the kids while we were in Florida. Thanks again!

I don't know who I'm more impressed with--you for supporting him while he's had to train--or Jeff! Way to go!

Wow, congrats Jeff! I'm glad I'll be pregnant in the Bahamas so I have a reason to not be as fit and lovely as all of you Jacksons.
