Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful job.

Omg I teared up reading this. I cannot even imagine the emotion and pride (and exhaustion) you must be feeling. Great race report and thank you so much for sharing your journey with us!!!

Ahhhhh, I loved reading this! Many congrats to you, Ironman! (Also, I would totally be calling myself that all the time. Like at Starbucks, when they ask your name for your drink, say "Ironman")

It sounds like you had a great day. I'm so very happy for you! There's nothing quite like it, is there? Welcome to the Ironman family!

And I'm totally with you on the grapes. Ironman is the ONLY time I eat grapes while running. What is it about them?
