    Cool Imaz

    I haven't had any time for checking out the forum with all the training, work and life demands so it's been hard to get psyched. I'm finally starting to get excited.

    So... is anyone else racing on November 22nd?

    I don't have my bib number yet. I tried to find it on line but no success. I should go back and try again.

    I am excited but I also feel very under trained. It's been a tough year. However, the day will bring what it will and I'm sure it will be a good experience. Thanks to all of you for your support.

    She's got a write up on her blog. Wahine sure is inspiring. If my 2010 races go well, I'm thinking IM in 2011.

    Thank You!!!

    You ladies rock!! This is the first time I've had enough time on a computer since I left home over a week ago to log onto TE. I'm glad you found my race report on the blog!

    You have no idea how much I appreciate the support from all of you. It really does make a difference.

    I had a lot of fun at this race. The run segment was fantastic, even with the first 5 miles being pretty ugly. The last 5 were great. The competitor in me took over completely and I was reeling them in.

    Denise - thank you for your advice, I did have my lip balm. I did see you at the finish and it was great. You didn't surprise me at all, I was just happy to see you. It was great to meet you, I love your shop and the shirt you gave me is fantastic. I've been wearing it since I got up on Monday. I'm wearing it here in Moab as we speak.

    I'm glad you like the shirt! (maybe I'll make a few more and offer them up to the ladies here. I really am proud of my silly new silk screening hobby.)

    I felt so horrible after you guys left the other day, because I was still feeling under the weather. So next time I promise chipper Denise, not groggy, sounds like a frog being choked Denise... sigh...

    I had big plans to be at the swim start, and spend all day at the race, but I was just too ill to even think about that. In fact running hubby had to prod me off the couch to go see the finish. But I was super glad that I was there to at least see you finish!

    And one thing I forgot to send you home with, a custom EMC pint glass! DOH!!
    So I'll pm you for an addy and send a couple up to you.
    Enjoy the travels home. I envy your trip! You guys really made the most of the drive down!!

    OMG!!! Anyone watching the Biggest Loser special? About Matt doing Kona?? He missed the cut-off by 3 minutes, but he finished. Tears all around. I hope this is on nbc.com or hulu pretty soon, because this is an inspiring story.
