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 ;).

Here's the men's and women's winning lineup. I'm so proud!!! 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).
