Nathan LaFrance finished up his triathlon season with a 3rd place in his division at IronKids Nationals.   The event took place on the last day in August, 2013 at Gray's Lake, Des Moines, IA.   Nathan had a good 300yd swim split but was a little unsure of where he was among his competition due to the staggered style start.   Then on the 8 mile bike split, he passed a lot of riders (he had the second fastest bike time of the day!).   After a lightning fast transition, he finished up the 2 mile run feeling like he had had a great race.  After the results were posted and he saw who came in 1st and 2nd, he felt quite accomplished knowing he placed well among a very competitive field and that he was within 2 seconds of 2nd place.  What an excellent way to finish off the Triathlon season!
