Subject: RE: Ironman New Zealand : Official ThreadHey guys Well done to all who did this. I think I saw Gerrard a couple of times as he passed me on the run! I was stoked with my first effort (12.24.34) especially since I had a heart operation in December 2007 and was coming off a base of nothing when I started training. Reckon I've pretty well laid those demons to rest now, but always keeping a watching eye on it. For a first timer, this whole experience was simply outstanding. We were blessed with the weather, and the organisation at IMNZ is stunning! I'm still buzzing 4 days later, and thinking seriously of next year. My coach reckons I can get to about an 11.30 with some good training off this great base but has warned me away from any triathlons over the next couple of months at least. Anything else is fine. Next project - I start a new job on Monday after not working for the past 3.5 months! Cheers Andy
