Race the Lake

On Sunday, Seth rode in Fond du Lac's Race the Lake bike race. It is a 90 mile ride around Lake Winnebago. There was over 2,000 riders this year. The kids and I didn't go to the start of the race because it was at 5:45 am, but we went to see Seth finish.

Having a little snack.

Silas had fun watching all the cyclists come in.

Both kids entertained themselves by picking up little nuts and berries underneath the tree we were sitting under while we waited. They also had fun dancing to the music.

Seth coming in. He is hard to see in this picture. He is behind the rider in the front of the photo. Didn't the other guy know I was trying to get a picture.

Seth is on the left in the red Swiss jersey.

Seth finished in 690th place out of 2,000. He finished with a time of 4 hours 24 minutes and 28 seconds. He did great! He averaged just over 20 mph.

The kids and I had a great time watching Seth compete in his race. He is very excited to do it again next year and he has already been trying to gather up some more people to join him.

But of course they loved having a treat of cotton candy while Seth ate his lunch.
