So proud of you Denise, and so inspired.

Now, off to the pool..........
Sending you my congratulations. Your spirit was with us all as we eagerly awaited your results. You're truly an amazing inspiration.
As an aside, thanks to all for the updates.
congratulations!!!! this is so fantastic, I am in awe. I'm looking forward to seeing the race report. Now sleep well, and eat well :D You deserve it.
Denise--congratulations!!! You ARE AN IRONMAN!!! Celebrate, recover, and when you are tired of all that, come tell us your inspiring story!!!
I just wish the video link hadn't gone out--we wanted to watch you cross the finish line. I'm sure you will have photos for us!!!
AWESOME!!!!!:)
I had dreams about this last night! Seriously. In my dream there was this lady who came to visit me... and she was telling me all about how she was an Ironman!
My dream came true... Denise finished!
WOW! Denise... you are amazing! WAY TO GO!
*Does the snoppy dance* *Wipes away tears*
What an amazing journey you have been on, thanks for letting us come along. We are the lucky ones!
*Hugs*
We can probably watch her later- usually there's a thing on the actual IM site (Ironman Arizona, not Ironman Live) that says "Watch Me Finish." Hopefully that will be working.
Nanci
That would be really cool.
congratulations Denise! What an achievement! Thanks for taking us along. Felt like I was there (without all the cramping, pain, training....and stuff;) )
Write (or dictate to DH) when you are rested.
HEY LADIES!
Go to the "Triathlon" section of the message board... Denise posted a short race report there!
I only posted this here, as I think some don't venture to that section.
Way to go! I was watching your progress all day and am so proud of you!:)
Congratulations!!!!!!:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
What an accomplishment!!!:) :) :) :) :) :) :)
I'm lucky enough to have a hubby who stays up really late working most nights - he watched the results for me on the ironman site and woke me up at 3:15 to let me know Denise safely finished. What a guy:)
Wow!! Congratulations on such an accomplishment!
I'm in awe! Congratulations Denise - you are amazing!
Congrats Denise, what a ride.
Congratulations Denise! I am sorry I missed it! They had bike races in town all weekend so I wasn't home to watch. You did awesome!
Jessica
