It's Official...

I AM AN IRONMAN!

Thank you to my family and friends for all your support.

Thank you to those of you who emailed, called, texted, send cards, gave me inspirational cards, cheered me on on the race course (Lindsay, Dana, Julia, Paul, Jim and Ginny)... it meant so much to me. Thank you.

Kara, you were a lifesaver today. Thanks for pacing me when I found myself with no power.

Paul and Dian, I am so thankful we all made this journey together. I love you both.

And Chris, well, there are no words.

Holly and John,

Ha ha ha... I JUST had the "which one are we doing next" conversation with my friends Paul and Dian. We think next year we need a break, but the year after we are thinking Ironman Canada, CDA again or Lake Placid. Want to join us? : )

Thank you all, again, for all your support! It was awesome.

Congratulations, Jennie! I don't know how you were feeling out there, but the smile on your face the entire run let me know you were hanging tough and strong! And seeing you always brought a smile to my face!
