  • Comments: As I've said in my previous comments, this is an outstanding, flawlessly-run world-class race at every level, with world-class competitors. We also got a really nice race shirt, by the way. The only room for improvement is that the website could have more comprehensive information and be updated periodically, apropos of the type of professional, excellent event this is.

  • Comments: The race organizers walked around and served us lunchboxes--athletes got two! Indonesian food, and Western food! Lloyd and I picked out of each other's boxes, which were all slightly different ... I gave him banana, he gave me cookie. Rodney came 'round and told me I'd won third in the women's! I was soooo excited, I had the energy to steal the last of Lloyd's cookies when he wasn't looking. The medals ceremony was so lovely. Bob Windle, a race organizer and OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALLIST in the 1500 free, gave us our certificates and medals. I was so happy! I think this picture is so cute because you can't see either of our faces--maybe we're kissing back there or something ;).

Do you know how long it's been since I got a swimming medal? Like almost 20 years! (It's also been 21 years since I swam 5000m continuously).
