What an adventure! You DO rock! Are you now a desperado, an outlaw, a duelist? Hmmm.

YAY! I was thinking of you all day, and watching for your report! CONGRATULATIONS! What an achievement.
Glad to hear Ms. Pika got to provide necessary Puppy Therapy. Cool jersey! I'm looking forward to more pix. Rest up and let us know how the various parts are doing. L.

Yay for you!! I am so happy for you! Come to CA and do a double with us next year - I don't think ours are that windy!
Sorry about that contacts thing. I know sometimes mine get foggy to where you can't see well - I carry a small bottle of the cleaner and extra lenses just in case. I have a friend who had lasik and swears by it. I am too chicken to do that at this point. There was just a whole huge thread on the ultra cycling list serve about contacts and prescription glasses, etc. Not an uncommon problem apparently....
That hand/pniky thing sounds like a pinched nerve - if your back ultimately went numb, I expect there's more pain to be had (sorry) once the numbness goes away.
Very speedy first 100 - your time overall was great for a "first" double. And I liked that you called it your "first" double because that implies there are more doubles to be had....
Take it easy on the body for a week or so - unwind and enjoy some more good wine. You earned it!!!Sarah

I can already feel the pain. Way to go that is quite an accomplishment!
