Congratulations! I'm glad I had the chance to hang out with you. I wanted to see you off on your swim but you were in the water before I realized they called your wave.

For comparison, my swimmer took just under 40 minutes. Still, she was elated because she's no longer scared to do OWS; I'm so happy for her.

As Regina said, I took her ride slot and had an amazing ride (I was slated to do the swim). I've done that route something like 20 or more times and I think this one was my best ever. I missed a PB by 13 seconds but it felt so good this time.

Congrats again!

You successfully did - and did really well at - what millions of people would NEVER dream of doing. (Like I, for one, would never get in that water...blech!)
You.
ROCK!

And congrats to MDHillSlug, too, who also rocked on the bike for a relay team at that race...taking my slot as I ... um...sat on a beach in Honolulu!
