Ironman Florida : Official Thread (Page 85)

I was surprised how many people took us up on the offer of beer on their first lap.  Some people even asked us for some pizza rolls.  I like that nutrition plan.

Here's the Official Ironman Highlight video. KathyG, is that you in one of the last frames? I'm pretty sure it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p5mSISOf-Y

Bum... I'm not in it.....lots of the folks who finished around my time.

Scanned one of my official finisher photos...reflects how I felt

I watched the video. It does look like you were in pain. Way to stick to it.

One of the ladies in the video had a # that finished with 06. I thought it might be you.

Here's my finisher photo:

I did see the 06 as well. They showed most of the last 10 finishers but not me.

Nice finish photo!

My husband has some great swim photos and bike transition area photos he got from our condo on 22nd floor. I'll post some tomorrow.

You could buy them at the race before or after. If you paid there they gave you the two finisher photos they had printed. The rest will be available via down load soon.

I'm still in Fla, so we do not have access to a scanner. My pic is the finisher pic I purchased on site. My wife then took a picture of it with the camera and we uploaded it.

To all you fantastic finisher's - CONGRATULATIONS!! What a great day. 

I am just sorry I did not get to meet you all (mainly due to having my wife and kids there and so was trying to make it a vacation too). I loved every single minute of it. I am now thinking that I may do Ironman South Africa - the only Ironman in Africa and it happens to be in my hometown, Port Elizabeth (though I left there 14 years ago!). My wife is now also contemplating it too  

Thanks again to a great group of people on this forum and well done Kathy! 

I did Ironman SA last year - great race - even better vacation - 

Great time in Panama City Beach!!.  1st Ironman was a great experience as I did it safely without GI issues, cramping or injury and was able to sprint at the end,,so cool!!!

Sorry I didn't get a chance to meet any of you.

Goals for another Ironman will come around again for sure.  I will continue training and logging on BT and hit some shorter tris "Olympic and 1/2's" after a marathon in March 2012. I am planning the New Orleans 70.3 in April of 2013.  My wife and I went there for our honeymoon back in April of 1996 so we plan to do a little 17 year celebration down there again.

I may have to buy it.

Great photo Jennifer!

You look so happy~

Kathy, I went to the finisher before me and was able to see my finish. I would assume they will give you only your clip, I was going to send and email to ASI to ask them about that.

nom nom nom nom...

I looked at 2 previous finishers and I'm not there.

Here is my  finish semi  jump with bloody shoe.

That stinks, I just sent them an email to ask how I can get my video finish. They've got to have it, I would think we could give them your finish time and the should be able to get it.

I am :18 seconds into the video of the person that finish just ahead of me.

I'll send them an email. When I finished folks were pretty spread apart time wise and no one finished in the 29 seconds before me.
