Wow, tracking this race online may not be good for my mental health.. I'm HOME, not even at the race, and I'm finding myself wanting to be there, DOING it! What ever will happen when I'm volunteering at IMOO?????? I cannot sign up, I cannot sign up, I cannot sign up..rinse, repeat.

Ok, on a slightly less crazy note (although, is it????), Billy is on mile 92!!! Dude, you are almost done with the bike! yes, i know I'm talking to myself, but he'll get a kick out of my conversations with him later. HA.

Kathy's husband Paul posted that when she went through mile 70, she had a big smile on her face and is doing well. I think she is maybe 7-8 miles behind Billy..

Where is everybody??
