Thank you so much, Ladies!

All your encouragement got me through the training. Anyone have a most excellent triathlon near them? This stuff is addictive.

HM - is this what your friend at work is like?

Alle - LOVE your smilies. They are perfect!

Wait! You and Grace are my fitness heros! Thank you so much.

Oh yeah, I updated the first post with a rambling account of my big adventure.

I read your update and wow, was that ever exhilarating!!!

The only thing I can even add that would put me in any teeny-tiny-eensy-weensy category with you is that I ran that da*n hill while in Central Park and it is a killer----and that was just on a relatively short run. I cannot even imagine what that felt like on the legs after a swim and a long bike ride. (I, too, was surprised at the 'hilliness'--was not expecting that at all)

Again: W.O.W.

NM, after reading the story of your triathlon, I'm even more impressed.

Thank you so much for sharing with us. You rawk!!

Wow - that is so amazing - a big congratulations from me.

I loved reading your account of the race - so inspirational. 6 weeks ago - I started a running program - and I could barely run 60secs. I'm now almost running 5 km. So now when I'm training I'm going to keep your story in the back of my mind for inspiration.

Brilliant, just brilliant.

Alle, Luxe, DSR - Thank you so much!

Fleur, I was thinking of you while running in Central Park. That hill is killer.

Good for you, MoonMarg! 5k is a big accomplishment.

I couldn't run for a minute either when I started. Please come join us in the diet and exercise thread. We have a lot of fun.
