I'm doing the math and trying to figure out approx. when she will finish.. I think I can do it! I will be pissed if I fall asleep when she has less than 5 miles to go!

Can you share your math with the class? I am too tired for maths.

My rough math is another 30 mins or so from now.

Probably closer to 45 min.

We're cheering for you, kams!!! You're so amazing, and you're almost there!!

ETA: I just glanced at her splits again, and her pace has steadily improved since her 16.7 split. How is she speeding up?! Fucking amazing!

[runaways]

I feel vicariously exhausted from tracking them.

[sadlebred]

Congratulations chw57!!

Go kams!!

[mrsjthompson]

I go to dinner and come back and this thread has doubled in length. Yay chw57 and yay kams! Y'all both freakin' rock! You just amaze me!

[G22]

She's so close to being done!! You totally got this kams!!

[thom]

Wow Kams! Picked up the pace again for her 21 mile split! I suppose for those East coast it is getting late. I have an early morning tomorrow, but I'm not missing this finish. We're here rooting for you kams!

It's close to 11pm! I have water pouring down my face from yawning so much, but I am determined to stay awake. 

[adcobe]

I'm not watching the feed but just reading this thread is so inspiring. You two are so amazing. Absolutely incredible!!

[thom]

Ok, now I'm ready for the last stretch. What's everyone else eating and/or doing?

I was up at 5:30 today, worked for 10 hrs, and I'm waking up at 5:00 tomorrow. I don't think I'm going to make it.   I can't believe I'm going to miss this. If I fall asleep, you take screen shots, OK??

We just finished having a bunch of folks over for DH's birthday.  I've been drinking strawberry lemonade champagne cocktail all night.

I've missed most of the ironman fun, but go kams!!!

Laying in bed. Irontrac is down and I can't pull up the feed on my phone, so I'm counting on you ladies for updates. Go kams go!! Trying to stay awake for the big finish!

[shauni27]

I am just now barely getting online to track and follow, I feel AWFUL about missing this. LADIES, I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!! I am crying just looking through the thread and tracking you on the site.

[cole]

Congrats chw57!!!! Go kams!!

[runaways]

Okay I'm back. She must be getting pretty close now, right? 21.6 about an hour ago?

[joenali]

Those last few miles can take a long time! Go Kams Go!
