You did something VERY big. And I know exactly how you feel. There have been races where I doubted myself the entire time. And wondered why I was there, especially when I knew how far back in the pack I was. <BR/><BR/>But you know? I finished. And you finished. And that was a product of your hard work and training.<BR/><BR/>I know you have it in you. And I think we're similar in that we need to fight the negatives that creep in. Attack Ironman feeling strong and proud and push out the doubts.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03706171809005188744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26676690.post-27880793806901940952008-06-12T05:28:00.000-07:002008-06-12T05:28:00.000-07:00What an inspiring race report.

But I have to say, that sunburn looks murderous! <BR/><BR/>Maybe it will just take a little time to regroup, recover and heal before you take the plunge into signing up for an Ironman?<BR/><BR/>Either way, you have already done something truly amazing.

You are an incredibly stong swimmer and biker, and the rest is a walk in the park (or in Panama City)! Come volunteer, see the range of folks who give it a try. You will be inspired all over again and know that YES YOU CAN!<BR/><BR/>Congratulations on your swim!TriGirl Kate Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618329412555443696noreply@blogger.com
