Apparently, that training $hit works.

Here's my results so far, compared to last year's IMLoo

OVERALL FINISHING TIME
CordyLane: 16:13
IMLoo: 17:19
(1 hour, 6 minutes faster)

RANK
CordyLane: 1869/1943 total, 97/137 of Women 40-44
IMLoo: Official last finisher. Of the entire thing.

SWIM
CordyLane: 1:40
IMLoo: 1:31
(9 minutes slower)

T1
CordyLane: 7:38
IMLoo:11:31
(Almost 4 minutes faster)

Bike
CordyLane: 8:09
IMLoo: 8:55
(46 minutes faster)

T2
CordyLane: 10:31
IMLoo: 20:08
(almost 10 minutes faster - it saves time not to sit down and cry in transition, I've found.)

Difficult, difficult race. Very comparable to Kentucky.

Thanks SO MUCH for all the well wishes.

I was imagining each time I rode or ran over a timing mat that all your positive energy was represented in that little beeping noise!

More tomorrow...
after I sleep some more. The only thing keeping me awake right now is that an equally tired Baboo occasionally hitting rumble strips on the highway.
