Crispin, you were flying!  It was great to see you at the start of the race, I finished about 8 minutes behind you.  Great race.

Congrats!  I was thinking about you guys that morning.  The wind was ferocious!  I decided to bike that morning and felt like I was going to be blown off my bike.  Anyway, I hope I'll be doing the 1/2 with you guys next year (though I'm sure you'll be doing the whole shebang!).
