What an amazing weekend. Lance finished Ironman...I get the chills thinking about it. Finally, the 5th of the "Fab Five" got to do his race. And he did it in style...he was the celebrity of the day out there. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. I am so impressed with him for perservering and getting to the finish line...He was an Ironman two years in the making...He already had it when he got there, but he wanted the medal to close the chapter. And he got it. And it was one of the most amazing things I was ever witness to. Those last two and a half miles to the finish, when we were all together, were so intense and so gratifying. I have never personally witnessed a person "dig deep" the way I did on Sunday.

I want to write a lot more about it... but my throat and lungs are sore from the weekend...the 18 mile run and the 18 hour day would have been enough. But then all of Kelowna and the areas surrounding Penticton had to go and burn down...so it feels like I have a touch of the black lung. Time for bed...

Lance...amazing. Truly amazing.
