Rappahannock River Fun

The race on Saturday was on the beautiful Rappahannock River. It looked similar to the James River with the rocks and rapids. After the race we walked down to the "beach" area to let Charlie play in the water!



You know how much the little man loves the water, so we had to make time for playing!



Dynamo splashed and Charlie tried to catch the splashes!



Look at that focus...



He's got it!





This dog loves the water...



Check out these moves...







He just makes us laugh!



And, we even stopped to read some of the plaques...





It was a beautiful day to be outside together!

Racing the FORD

We arrived Saturday morning in Fredericksburg for the FORD - Fredericksburg Off-Road Duathlon! Dynamo has competed in this run, bike, run race a few times! It's a great event with competitors of all skill levels! Dynamo raced the advanced course!



Dynamo got setup in the transition area and then they were off! See him in his orange shirt!!





We all wait near the transition area for each and every return! Charlie gets lots of love from other dogs and kids while we wait! Then, we see our Dynamo coming in the distance!



He's coming in to grab his bike and head out for the approximately 10 mile bike portion...



And, he's off on the bike...





We wait a little while and then he's back from the bike!







Now, it's one last run before the finish. And, here they come...







I was so proud of Dynamo! I always am. He works so hard and is so dedicated! He ended up placing 4th in his age group!!! It's so inspiring to everyone out there working so hard! I love being a part of these events, even if it's just to cheer!!
