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.

  13. I am in awe and I will say it over and over that I really think somehow you guys are really superheroes (with capes and masks and cool tool belts) because you both have super powers.
    We tracked you all day yesterday and jumped up and down and high fived each other every time a bloggy peeps stats were updated. We super high fived each other when you and Mr. You had your stats updated. You both are awesome and someday we have a chance to meet and talk because I need to get some of your mental toughness. Great job.
    Now for the new tattoo?

  16. If you had been listening REALLY hard you would have heard the world laughing at me as I did a cartwheel whenever you crossed a checkpoint.
    We did a 53 mile bike in your honor Sunday morning, talked about you guys the whole way.
    AWESOME, awesome, awesome job! So happy for you. And looky at all the people finishing behind you this time. You ROCKED!

  17. Woohoo!! Great job out there...I was waiting for my Coach to come in and frantically searching the results to make sure you had made it in off the bike because I knew you'd kick the moon's butt after that. :) Congrats on yet another notch in that IM belt!
