Who Was That Woman in the Leopard Print Full Body Swim Suit at the Emmett Sprint Triathlon 2013

Bestest swim suit ever...you need to get Leopard tri shorts and top to match for the rest of the race! Congrats on the race!

Way to go!!!!!!

 

[Longboard]

Yes!

Great race report. Love the suit!

Nice Job Laura. I would love to try a tri someday. If I tried right now, the race director would have to allow me to have arm floaties and the bike portion would be done on my old hard tail mountain bike with a few gears missing. At least I might be able to complete the run portion ok. Anyway, respect to you triathletes, that's a lot of skills to learn.

Way to go Happysongbird! Awesome suit and a great report!!

Great report, sounds like you did it easily. It's a good thing you ditched the leopard skin before the finish - the green hat wouldn't match at all.

I'm with ya Rick, a tri sounds awesome but about all I can do in the water is the doggie paddle. Now if they had a tri that was paddle a canoe, mountain bike trail, and run, that would be perfect!

Way to go songbird! Wahoo!

You should have painted your feet in a leopard pattern so others could have more easily recognized that you had been the one wearing the leopard suit.

You rock Laura! Way to represent!

You can learn how to swim as an adult. Takes a swim instructor and a bit of persistence.

Nice work!
You earned it, and a chance to show your awesome sewing skills too (you must have a good serger and some serious sewing prowess, which impresses me at least as much as the tri performance)

Awesome Laura. Curious, what are the distances for the sprint tri?

 

[Spiderweb62]

Well done ! Very nice report !

I actually thought of that afterward. I have a year to work on the idea.

Thanks! 750 meter swim, 12 something mile bike, 3.1 mile run.

ha ha thanks I have been sewing for many, many years and frequently enjoy doing things differently than the patterns. It's always a learning experience, though.
