Congratulations, Brett House

On July 31, 2010 at 8:00 a.m. at Cypress Park in Shreveport, Brett House, a freshman at Lafayette High, ran his first sprint Triathlon at the SPORTSPECTRUM IRON FISH TRI.  For the past year Brett has trained very hard preparing for this race.  Through his own determination and hard work he has achieved and has met every goal he made for himself.  

There were approximately 70 kids in his division ranging from 11 to 15.  They had a 200 meter swim in the lake followed by a 6 mile bike ride and then a 1.2 mile run.  He completed this at a time of 40 minutes flat putting him in 2^nd place in his age group and 6^th place over all.  This was quit an accomplishment for his first race.  Not only is Brett an inspiration to all but so are all the kids who competed.  It was amazing to watch the determination of such young athletes to compete in such a physical race.  Your friends and family are very proud of you Brett and can’t wait to cheer you on at your next race.
