    Adding my voice to congratulations. What a moving story!

    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

    Tracy and Melisa

    You guys were there, right? So we can expect Ironman reports from you as well.... ...I just can't get enough!

    Anybody know how to find the "Watch Me Finish" video?

    I think I was wrong in my previous post about where Watch Me Finish is- I think it is really on the Ironman Live site, which is STILL having PROBLEMS and has reverted back to the old site that doesn't do anything. Soon it will be fixed, I hope!!

    We watched BF's over and over last November- I made everyone at work watch it.

    some IMAZ Pics

    I spent a lot of time going back and forth to the hotel so I was pretty much focusing on being able to cheer Denise on. I would have LOVED to be able to watch the whole thing and stay all day but it doesn't work well with tired kids in tow! Here are a couple of pictures - first one is at the finish, second one is the very last piece of the bike ride (this is where we thought she missed the cutoff because she got to the bike handoff area before we did!) then the last one is at the swim/bike transition. I'm not a photographer but you get the idea!

    Great pictues!

    Thanks for sharing!

    I love the way some of the pictues are in the daylight... and the one at the finish line is in the dark. Really shows what an odyssey (? spelling) she went through! I love the fact that she was smiling too!
