Congrats on finishing an extremely rough course yesterday. They don't get much more difficult than that run.

Hey!  Nice job--I think you did awesome   Frank killed us both   I only had to deal with him once though--not twice.  And never again! 

Did you sign up for IM next year?

Like I told Hiccup...I think we should all find out who Frank is so we can hunt him down.

That is an INCREDIBLE time for that race!   I think that's one of the toughest 1/2 IM courses around (that I've heard of anyway) but you came out of it like a pro.  I wish I'd known who you were so I could have cheered you on.

IMOO 2006?
