    Yay RunningMommy!! So glad you're racing again!!

    Saw my first iron distance finish a few weeks ago (my DH came into a relay team for the bike leg at just 4 weeks til). What an amazing experience
    Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...

    That is so inspiring! I felt that kind of elation when I finished the Marine Corps Marathon. Kudos to all you triathletes! I will never be a swimmer, it's all I can do to stay afloat!

    Yay- RM is back in the game!!! I'm SO glad to hear that we'll be cheering for you next year!!!

    I agree that the finish line is the BEST! We have an iron distance almost literally in our backyard every September (although we cannot call it "iron distance" anymore because we were sued this year by WTC for using the word "iron" because they said they own all rights to the word "iron". We don't have big lawyers to fight it so we have to call it a "full" distance race).

    Anywho- it was my first IM (and my DH's, too). It's the BEST to watch people finish- newbies or seasoned veterans. We have about 1000 people do the full and half combined every year, but even tho we're small we do it up big time. IM is the BEST!!!!
