Congrats!! Sounds like the whole weekend was fantastic. And you did such a great job for your first tri, especially one this big. The size alone might freak me out. and good for you for telling those girls off. They need to learn to be a little more considerate, especially in situations like these. What you ladies are doing is awesome, to beat something like cancer and then come back and take control of your lives enough to be able to do something like a triathlon is an inspiration to us all. Once again, congrats, and you rock!

Congratulations!!!
Congratulations!!! You are an inspiration!!!!!
and thank you for telling off the pipsqueaks who do this sport only to win and can't appreciate the true meaning of the sport!!!! Sometimes I wonder if these kind of people even enjoy what they are doing. Oh well, I know we sure do!!!!!!

Awesome work, Knotted! You sure rocked the bike! Originally Posted by KnottedYet

There were Ironman competitors, serious racers, and people out to have fun all in the same event, and you have to respect that each person's goal is different than your own.
You have to do it next year now that you've tasted the experience. Not to mention, now you have a time to beat!

Oooh, the pictures are up!
Mine all suck. Really, I looked MUCH sexier than that.
This is me saying "I'm not gonna cry, I'm not gonna cry." As I cried.

The bike was the BEST part. And a little wind up the skirt is ok!

As I well know, you can say, "I'm not going to cry" all you want, and then--CRYING! Great pix! I love the one of you waving on your bike. This time of year is like Christmas for TE tri girls! All the pictures to open!
