• Comments: It's a well-run race, and the woman who organizes it is really nice. They did a good job watching traffic for the most part, that semi notwithstanding. Wish they had had some real food at the end--I was dying for a pizza. :) No real activities at the end, but talking to people is always fun. You know, I didn't improve my time over Wilmington, and the swim was only half as long, but so freakin' what? I started training for this in May after volunteering at Nelson Bay, and since that time, I've sucessfully completed two sprint tris, a one-mile beach run, a 5k, and an 8k over two high-rise bridges. I've also handled the break-up of my marriage (had to be done), am raising a happy, healthy, cool little boy, and I've made a rich life for myself and him in our new town. I'm very, very proud of myself right now.
