Also, love all the H &F bonding. I think I'm friends w/ both of them on Instagram, which isn't quite same as FB. But close. I'd add regulars to FB too if you PM me.

Go Kams and chw57!!!!!!!!

[bluedaisyus]

I added a couple of folks on FB. Message me if you want me to add you, or if you figure out who I am through mutual friends just add me and send me something so I know who you are.

Awesome! Last piece of the journey now. I hope both of them are feeling the H&F love and know how inspiring & strong they are.

I TOTALLY DID IT!

I got a screen cap of her coming off the bike course, I compared it to a shot someone posted of her on FB earlier. I wonder if she'd mind if I posted it? But it's totally her.

Thank you!! The app is behind for me. Still don't have that. Way to go, kams!!

[joenali]

Go Kams!

[reginaphalange72]

Wohoo!  kams and chw57 are killing it!

[melmel48]

I love this so much! Also I can hear Guns N Roses playing on the live feed. That is one of my favorite bands. Even with some of my favorite music going, I think I would still be dying. They all make me want to cry because they are so bad ass.

Go chw!! She is rocking it!

I'm happy to be FB friends with H&Fers too, if anyone feels like adding me. Just pm me.

H&F: where skinsuits are only something you wear for triathlons

I'm also on fb but hard to find. I'm friends with clseale with AH initials, and I've shown my profile pic on here in a race recap. I think that's descriptive and vague enough

This made me audibly snort, and now my mom (who is visiting for my marathon this weekend) is wondering WTF I'm doing.

Her face is a little... well she's adorable no matter what. But yeah, her face is pained slightly with a hint of smile!

[coconutbug]

And chw is done with 7.8 mi of the run now, 41:15 for the last 4 mi.  Woohoo!  Staying strong!

[katandkevin]

Yay! They both seem to be doing awesome!

I know I don't post a ton anymore, but I am slowly working back in to my IM training. Anyone wants to be fb friends, pm me.

I also want in

Is it weird that I feel "safer" about being FB friends w/ H&Fers than people from any other GBCN board?

Because we all have public race results, which makes it easy to figure out if someone is who they say they are!  
I'd love some H&F friends- happy to share by PM! 

Yeah, I think that is it.

You can also find me on Twitter as sadlebred.

You know, this thread was the coolest thing to come back to after my race last year. I read it again this morning!

They are going to love this!

[coconutbug]

chw is done with 8.9 mi now, keeping it steady. Way to go!

[Susie]

I'm sending so many strong run vibes to TX for them! Go kams & chw57!

[Deleted]

Ok so they're both on the run. I'm going to make dinner.

Where are they trackable online? I want to try to catch their finishes.

Seriously, I'm super excited I got this screen cap of kams. I'm not going to post it until I have her OK but still!

It really was.  I loved reading the ones from mine.

:: runs off to read them again... ::

[katinthehat]

They're doing amazing and their bikes are incredibly considering they had a headwind the whole way back.

The run is only going to get "easier" from now on as it's going to start getting shaded on the run course and cooling off.

Also, totes want in on the FB love. PM away!

[katinthehat]

I think CHW's ultra experience is really paying off on the run now - girl is a beast!

[skwcm80]

chw57 and kams are kicking so much ass!! It is so inspiring.

[2doxies]

I'm so amazed that these ladies are running a MARATHON now and that means that they're in the home stretch. Awesome!

[hannahb]

This is so exciting!!!!! It I friend some of you on FB don't be scared. Won't divulge my name but it's not Hannah and my profile pic is the cutest little boy

[finallykrisb]

Chw is smoking it on the run! 9:1X splits so far!

And I want new FB friends too!

[coconutbug]

kams is done with 3.8 mi of the run in 37:20. Great pace off the bike. So proud of you!!
