Jennifer Lopez completed the Nautica Malibu Triathlon in about 2 1/2 hours Sunday.
The singer, 39, pumped her arms in the air and smiled broadly as she crossed the finish line of the swimming-running-biking event.
Husband Marc Anthony was on the sidelines being supportive. The couple kissed between the biking and running portions of the race.
Fans and fellow participants were seen cheering on Lopez and giving her high-fives.
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.
Lopez and Anthony are expected to return to NYC after the event to host his 40th birthday bash Sunday night.
Lopez 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.”
She also joked that she is determined to finish the race even if she “has to crawl across that finish line.”
Lopez’ run raised money for the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles.
