-- gnat! (you GO girl!!)

You are a rockstar!!!!
You are just plain awesome!
Thank you all SOO much for the support!
I promise to work on a race report as soon as a get a good night's sleep!
Kacie
I can't wait to read it, Kacie! Congratulations!! You rock!!!
Swim Report is done:

Happy reading!http://kacietri-ing.blogspot.com/201...port-swim.html
Thanks for the report Kacie. I look forward to reading the others.:D It is awesome that you did this race. You ROCK!!
Great report! I'm eager to read the next instsllments. Maybe it's just my reading of it, but you sound so calm and nonchalant about the race. I would have been a nervous wreck, but you sound so Zen.
So cool! Can't wait for the next installment. Hope your recovery is going well!
Part 2--the bike!

Probably the most appropriate for TE!
Wow; that's awesome.
Did I do my math right? You rode a bit over 17 miles an hour for 224 miles? That, on its own, is impressive. Add in the swim and run of a double IM and I'm just in awe.
Yup--that's right. The wind was rough though. Without that, it would have been a smidge higher for sure, but I had to ride the hand that the weather dealt me on that day!Not trying to complain for sure, but the weather was tough!
Wow, Kacie - you are writing a cliff-hanger!! I swear that when I read your last sentence, my stomach dropped!
Can't wait for the final installment!
Your crew seriously rocks, by the way. ;)
Holy cow!!!! Kacie, that's AMAZING!!!! I've been away from TE for a while too, and come back to see THIS!!!!!!!!!!! You're a rockstar!!!!
I did Sebring again this year and still can't thank you enough for helping us out a few years ago. I can't wait to read the report!!!
What GLC said.
Also, your reports are doing a great job of taking me from "good grief, this is so enormous I can't even imagine it" to "holy sh***, this actually happened and Kacie actually did it." :eek::eek::D
Are you sure you're not a writing teacher? :D
So far it sounds like you had a blast.

Wow Kacie. What cool reports and I agree with the others, your crew rocked it!!
I have to say that I shouldn't be reading these, lest I get some sort of crazy idea about doing one. :eek:
Part Three: the run

I might have cried a little while writing this one.
Wow... a race report and a love story. What a wonderful final installment. Thank you for sharing your amazing accomplishment with us.

Now go treat yourself to something incredible. You've earned it a hundred times over. :)
How do you feel??
I'm totally crying here, too. Kacie, I'm so impressed. You are clearly one amazing woman not just for what you accomplish, but for who you influence and for the incredible people who surround and love you.
Congratulations from the bottom of my heart!
(and now I'm going to make sure my husband reads this race report! ;) )
I can't wait until I get home to read it!
Veronica
I cried too. Well done and what a great write up. I'm kind of speechless.
Wow - what a great report! Congratulations!!!
+1. Totally blown away.Quote:

Thanks so much for all of the love and support ladies. This is such an awesome place, and I really love all of the support I've found here.
I did an "ask me anything" post here:

Let me know if you have questions about my race!
Kacie, you are amazing and you have such an amazing team.
(I'm looking for a tissue after reading your race reports because the last one made me cry.) You rock, girl! Congratulations.
I concure with everything everyone has said. Your reports were great. How could you stay so calm throughout all of this? When you were out there were you just exicuting your plan and was it that that gave you confidence? How did you and Coach come up with your plan? I'm sure having done about 5-6 full IM's certanily helped too.
I think it is great that you are now starting to place in your races. You can finally see the results from all of your hard efforts. Take care of yourself.
Red Rock
Kacie - Your amazing - thanks for sharing the reports were great.
Sharon
So are you thinking about a triple? :D:D:D
Totally cried along with you watching that last video! Congrats, Kacie!! I am truly impressed and totally amazed at your strength and your attitude (I just ran and ran, or I just kept on biking). LOVE it!!! :)
Yeah... so when's the triple??? :p
So, it took a while, but here is my Q and A post.
In short, I don't have plans to do the triple :p
Thanks Kacie!!
