Do you have any page ideas for triathlons, marathons, or other races?

January 23rd, 2007

Question: Robin,
My husband and I are both 53 years old.  We do not have any children (or grandchildren, either, of course).  I started scrapbooking 3 years ago when he and I took my Daddy to Madeira, Portugal for the ITU World Long Course Championships (Olympic Distance Triathlon).

We both do triathlons (he does IM and I do sprints and olympic distances), marathons, and ultra-distance trail runs.  I find it very difficult to find examples or ideas of layouts for these types of sporting events.  I’ve designed several of my own, but would like other ideas.  It seems there are thousands of ideas for babies and weddings, etc. but not many for triathlons.  I noticed you participate in such events.  Do you have any pages you would be willing to share?  Thanks, Rocket

Answer: Rocket, thanks for your question!  We are remodeling at the moment and I won’t be able to get to my race layouts for a few more weeks (But I promise to send them soon!).  I did pull together several example layouts online for you.  Good luck with the racing!  I just did the St. George marathon in October (injured - but I made it) and hope to do a sprint triathlon in June.  I am so glad to meet some more athletes!

Here’s some good examples I found:
