Splash'n Dash 2008

• Swim 10 laps
• Bike 11 miles
• Kayak down the Crooked River
• Run 4 miles

Well, it was a long but adventurous 4th of July at the Splash n' Dash race here in Prineville.  Slater Chiropractic had two teams fighting for survival and fighting to take home 1st prize.  On the Adult team was Connor Slater who swam like a dolphin headed home, Chris Johnston, trying to find her wind like a flying squirrel on the bike, Dr, Slater kayaking the Crooked River as fast as light travels, and to finish off the race was Ristine Williams running like the greyhound chasing his meal.  These determined and strong individuals were no match however, for their young counterparts the kid's team.  To beat the adult team was a difficult task, but a successful one, with Braiden Johnston who swam like a mermaid escaping the dreaded pirates, Kirsti Kelso passing Chris on the bike as if on a speeding motorcycle. Kelsi Kemper gliding across the water like a swan at sunrise, and finally Brady Slater catching Ristine like a Cheetah chasing it's prey.  It was a tough and close race leaving victory in the hands of Slater's youngin's.
