Holy Cr@p what a great race report! I've got goose bumps!

I hope I can win that lottery and ask you for personal advice about your experience someday.

Great Job!

Your story sums up why we do this crazy thing called Ironman. Days like that...you are more than just a mere mortal. Amazing stuff. Thanks for making me smile this afternoon.

I have been sitting on the edge of my seat reading, told 2 people to come back later and ignored about 5 phone calls.

Great report, CONGRATULATIONS!!

Congrats...I had a blast rooting for you.  You race report put me right beside you.  One of the best RR of the year.  You put a huge effort into this epic.  Congrats for seeing all the way to the line.  Life time of bragging....and yes, you will do another one!

Crying, I'm really crying. Great job. Great memories and thanks for your brilliantly written review. I'll think of you on November 1st. Let's hope I'm not puking. I watch Seinfeld.
