Here Comes Dad!

*Click on any photos to see them larger!!*
After 33 minutes and 9 seconds Scott emerged from the water and crossed the finish line on the shore of the Aquatic Park. Here you can see him coming up from the water (in between the dark haired girl and the boy with the sweatshirt jacket on)

Running up the shore to cross the finish line in 33 minutes 9 seconds--you can see the clock at left.
This is the point at which Scott said he started to FREEZE!!! The water was 61 degrees...4 degrees warmer than it was when he did the race 3 years ago.

Scott greets the kids who were watching him as he completed the race! Scott placed 20th overall of some 300 swimmers. He placed 4th in his division and the three guys who beat him were young college guys wearing speed suits. Scott, as we know, is an older guy so we all think he did AWESOME !!

We got interviewed and videoed at the race also...probably because I was the only one there with children watching the race...everyone thought it was neat that we had such a STUD for a dad! We think so too! =)
