Melisa Angelone, YOU ARE AN IRONWOMAN.
My God. That is just fabulous. Congratulations."My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."

Great report. Congratulations. You must be on top of the world!
There are so many kicka** women on this forum. I love it! You IronPeople (and, for that matter, you TriPeople and BrevetPeople and MultipleDoubleCenturyPeople and UltraRunningPeople) are all super hardcore and AMAZING.

Melisa- I always read about/watch the Ironman Tris and I just can't wrap my mind around it... to me, it's like watching yogis levitate or fast for four or five months... It's that level of incredible. You're so cool- congrats! So much respect!

WOW! What a fabulous report!
You did a great job out there. 49 miles of headwind?
That is something that would get into my head... BAD! Sounds like you stood up to it!
The gas... sounds horrible. I can see my body doing something like that. I am making a mental note to pack Tums, Gas-X, etc. in a special needs bag... IF I ever get to do an Ironman!
Well... congrats on becoming an IRONMAN!!!! What an accomplishment!"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"
