8 am - the triathlon team hosted a field day for special olympics, and I was in charge of one of the games and the prizes.  Jacob went with me to help out.  My assigned game was the egg and spoon relay.  There were lots of other games, too, like tug-of-war, water balloon relay, three-legged race, over-under beachball relay, roll the hula hoop, etc.  A large number of special olympians came. We played the field day games first and then split everyone up into to 5 or 6 teams for a relay race.  Each team had about 11 participants - we all lined up and each person sprinted out and around a monitor sitting in a chair at the other end of the field - maybe 50 to 75 yards?  Our team won that one.  Then we split into two groups to play either kickball or soccer.  I played soccer, and it got pretty intense, with good players on both teams.  The sprints in the relay and the soccer game really kicked my booty - I'm used to long runs!  We all had lunch and headed home.  It was a fun morning for everyone there, and Jacob seemed to enjoy it too.

2 pm - India Fest with the family.  Several co-workers invited me to this, and the rest of the family came with me as well - it was very well-done with lots of exhibits, and there were lots of people from work there.  Learned a lot about Indian festivals, food, dance, and culture.
