    Thanks!

    How come nobody talks about the final event of triathlon: trying to get everything packed up and clear transition?

    Oooooooh nooooooo. The real final event is Thai food with beer.

    Good work MD!! You really did yourself proud today. 1000 m swim, seems to me there was a time when you were wondering if you could swim at all without fins!!

    Yippppppeeeeeee!!!

    OH YEA! Look at you ROCKING it lady!

    You hit all of your goals! All that training paid off!

    I love to rack at the end of the row away from the asile myself. That way, you can use all the space you want. It's great.

    Ha! See, when I read about ice in the water... I thought, "DUH"! But once I saw the temperature... it made sense. It's around 95-100 here in Texas, so the ice would be welcomed!

    Well, fabulous job! YOU ARE AMAZING!

    Congrats on a great race! You smashed your goals. And this was only your second race?

    As pleasant as 60's sounds right now, that actually sounds chilly coming out of the water and onto the bike.
    The best part about going up hills is riding back down!
