I am an Ironman!

Short and simple today, while I still try to unwind from yesterday.

I FINALLY crossed the finish line at Ironman Wisconsin.  Finish time was 16:06 -- five minutes slower than I had thought I would BUT well within the 17:00 hour time frame.

I was 49th out of 58 women in my age group that finished.  (Yes, this means that I was not last -- even in my own age group!) 

I am thrilled and still trying to have it all settle in.

Most of the day was great (the swim and the bike).   I got nauseous on the run (which seems to happen to alot of IM competitors)..... but was never even close to worrying about a cut-off time.

HOOO-RAY!

I will post details soon.....

THANKS again to everyone that supported me through this wild and wiley journey!
