Way cool!!! I was sad that I never got to meet you. I saw your husband on the bike several times. We were almost riding side by side for a big part of the race.
Thank you for sharing your story and photos. I've had to wait for a time when I could take the time to read it and soak it in. I kept tabs on you on race day and was thrilled to know you had finished and now to see the pics with that huge smile!
I continue to be impressed by those that push themselves to the IM level - even the fact I live with an every other yr IM athlete and see him train - I am still impressed by him and others like you, Iron Snoopy and such that push yourselves to limits I could only hope to obtain someday!
I looked at my feet. They didn't look any different. They just looked like my feet. So did my legs. I had this idea that when you finished something like this, you'd look different--your legs would look like the legs of a runner, all ropy and muscley. But I still looked like me. I just didn't feel like me. 1.14.7

It is rude to count out loud the number of people you pass.
