I'm doing my first 1/2 Ironman in August. Whole mixed bag of feelings when you take on a distance and event like that. This story is encouraging and I will remember it as I train in the weeks ahead.

CC..Thank you for sharing this inspiring story. It really touched me. Maybe one day I can accomplish what the women in this story has and with such grace and courage. I am entered in my first sprint at the end of June with another following mid August. I am slow but steady and getting stronger each day I train. I may finish last but for me, just finishing this year is my goal.
The tears of joy for her accomplishment and hope for me are flowing!

It's bad to be crying at my desk... especially Vulcan tears : (must be PMS) :-))
*That's* a victory.
