Hayden Triathlon And Thou

Megan Motley's wedding veil trailed her long, dark hair as it swished behind her. The white veil could clearly be seen against her green and black Coeur d'Alene TRI Team suit. As her fiance Shaun Leary rounded the final corner of the Hayden Triathlon course, the bride-to-be hopped on his back and he carried her across the finish line. Cheers erupted through the crowd. For the athletic couple, it was a nice day for a race wedding. "We have an evening wedding so it kind of works out," said Motley, 27, of Coeur d'Alene. "What else do you do on the morning of your wedding?" The couple's anniversary is July 22, so they wanted their wedding date to fall as close to their first date as possible/Devin Heilman, Coeur d'Alene Press.
