The 2010 Los Angeles Kaiser Permanente Thrive Triathlon was held this past Sunday in Venice, California.
My wife is also a Kaiser Permanente employee (and member of the Thrive cult). She joined a KP Relay Team to do the Olympic Triathlon. She's a marathoner, but somehow got conned into doing the bike relay segment. It was a lot of fun, and a great event! I thought it was very well-run, with lots of support and Thrive presence everywhere. At the last minute, I wanted to get a relay team together, but couldn't find a swimmer. During a moment of excitement and self-delusion, I briefly considered registering to "tri" the Sprint Tri by myself. But with no swimming training, I just was not confident how far, or even if, I could swim in the ocean. Plus, I would have had to relinquish my duties as the official Team photographer.
Here are a few pictures and a short clip of the exciting swim start!
