JENNIFER LOPEZ FINISHES TRIATHLON 2 1/2 HOURS!
The time: 2 hours, 23 minutes and 38.8 seconds!
That’s how long it took Jennifer Lopez to complete the Nautica Malibu Triathlon on Sunday.
Which, coincidentally, is about how long it took for me to get out of bed this morning!
I’m amazed!
How does she do it?
The singer, 39, pumped her arms in the air and smiled broadly as she crossed the finish line of the swimming-running-biking event.
Here’s what US magazine: had her saying about the event:
“Thank you guys so much,” she told the crowd. “This is an amazing day.
“I feel really great and so glad I finished and that I made it out of the water but more amazing than that, I feel really great that we raised $127,000 for the Children’s Hospital [of Los Angeles] and hopefully it’ll go to good use,” Lopez added.
Husband Marc Anthony was was there providing a couple of kisses along the way.
After finishing, Lopez joined her family and Matthew McConaughey, who came in before her, in the VIP area.
McConaughey was accompanied by his girlfriend Camila Alves and their newborn son Levi.
McConaughey’s race time was 1 hour, 30 minutes and 44.7 seconds.
From what I understand, JLo was inspired to run a triathlon while eight months pregnant with twins Max and Emme, who were born in February.
“I was beached like a whale,” Lopez — Self magazine’s Most Inspiring Woman of 2008 — said on ABC’s Good Morning America last month.
“I was watching TV, and I saw a triathlon and I said, ‘You know what? I think I could do that, that would be great for me to do. Maybe I’ll do it this year,’” she explained.
“Swimming is a killer,” Lopez admitted. “I’m not going to lie.”
And, from what I understand the swim training is even worse…….
I think I’ll go back to sleep!
Keep swimming!
“The Paps!”
