Great pictures! I love the fact that you look HAPPY in all of them. Maybe you faked it for the camera? Naw... I bet you were loving being in the moment so much... you couldn't help but SMILE!!!

You're doing IMFL? Wow- I'm jealous! I hope you have a great race! Please tell all when you return. I think I may sign up for it the morning after for 07. I want to hear all about your race !!!!!

My skirt was originally a running skort that I cut the shorts out of (they didn't have grippies to stay down on my legs- kept riding up). I just cut the shorts out and threw the skirt on over my tri shorts. Worked good for me, and was much more flattering than my tri shorts solo (I chafe when I run, so needed the longer compression shorts).Check out my running blog: www.turtlepacing.blogspot.com

Thanks, and I will be sure to write a RR. I am really excited and the time is coming close. I'd say if you're at all thinking about it, to sign up first thing. It sold out last year in less than 3 hours! Originally Posted by Tri Girl

I don't think there's anything that impresses me more than people who do an ironman... Well done!
