Thank you!

I will have my race report posted soon once I am caught up on sleep and have stopped vascilating between hungry and nauseated. But I have a few thoughts to share today...

Jx, Gordy, Sue and Gerry: I love you guys and will miss you! I wish you lived here (or I there) so I could have this much fun all the time! And thanks again for the gorgeous flowers, wine and chocolates (I broke into those last night :-) Congratulations to Sue and Gerry on an amazing first Ironman! You looked spectacular coming across that finish line. Safe travels and I will see you all soon.

Glassman: You amaze me! I am infinitely impressed with your IM performance. You can do ANYTHING you set your mind to. Just remember that. You have the skills, now believe.

MITriGirl, ItTakesTwo: So fun to see you girls out there on the course! It was a fantastic day and I hope you are soaking in all the recovery. Enjoy the holidays and I look forward to catching up soon! XO

JA, Paul, KT, and SkirtChaser: You're up next! Have you had that moment of panic yet when you ask, 'what have I gotten myself into?' No? Don't worry, you will! Can't wait to watch you tear it up out there next year! Stay safe in training.

It was an amazing day out there and I look forward to sharing my experience. I can't thank the volunteers enough for all their support. Special thanks to the ladies working the women's change tent, Run Aid station #2 for having vaseline on hand, and my friends and family at Run Aid #8. Thanks, John, for playing Eminem when I needed it most. Thanks, Hillary, for making me feel like a rock star the 6 times I saw you. Thanks to SkirtChaser for being my Iron Sherpa and support crew. Couldn't do it without you!
