Wish that were true. Absolutlely f***ing shattered. Severe vertigo on the swim at the turn around, quite literally thought I was goin to drown, I couldn't keep my head above water, i couldn't tell which way was up and which was down. Honestly one of the scariest moments of my life. Tried to continue 3 times, trying to keep doggy paddling, breast stroke, whatever I could do, I had 2 hours to go 1 mile. vertigo kept coming back. When I started vomiting,and realized I probably couldn't keep a bike upright even if I made it is when I realized my day was over 1 f**** ing half hour in. Couldn't stand up when they got me to shore. At least I got to throwup as part of my IM experience... in the water, on the boat, on shore, in the ambulance, in med tent, and on the car ride home. Spent the last 5 hours trying to drink a bottle of water and eat 20 pringles.

Followed by one of the most humiliating moment, sitting in a wheelchair outside med as families walked by in my jammers trying not to throw up the Sprite and pretzels. Oh yeah, the wheelchair ride to my car, sitting by the finish chute was f(((ing brilliant. really, it was more than i could take.

I'll be offline for a while, it's all going to be a bit too much. If I keep writing this is going to get brutal, as I feel quite f***ing pathetic at the moment

Congrats to the BT finishers
