Hey folks, what a crazy last 18 months.  From couch patato (took that from you Carol) to hopefully IM.  Miss you all!  When I took up this sport apx 18 months ago I knew nothing and thanks to many of you for great advice.  I don't attribute this effort alone, rather the things I have learned from many of you, the frendships formed, kicking my butt in training, and long rides, and especially swims at Lake Jordan.  You all have given me so much encouraagement.  How else could a middle aged man do something so damn stupid!  I couldn't affored a sports car, couldn't get a younger wife, nor fly off to Paris, so Im stuck with IM as my mid life crisis.

Seriously, every time I asked a dumb question, you guys came to the table with great support and words of wisdom.

I need one more thing, I really need a prayer on Sunday morning.

You got it Harold!  We'll be tracking you too with the Athlete Tracker!  Most of all enjoy the day, it will be over too soon.  And buy all of your pictures the next day, go to the awards banquet and enjoy some Derby Pie the day after the race!

Good Luck!!  God Speed!

We'll all be rooting for you, Harold. I think a sports car would of been a cheaper midlife crisis, tho. Just sayin...

Remember to put it out of your box and save it for the line. I hope you read that!

Best of Luck, Harold.  I hope that you really enjoy yourself and meet all of your goals along the way.  Will be checking in on your finish, which should be around noon, right.

Good luck Harold! I, like the other, are wishing you all the best for race day! I'll be stalking you from afar and might just have a GU while I check your progress!
