The full narrative is after the photos. I think. I never know in what order these things will appear.
5:00am, two bikes
6:00am, lots of bikes
which way to the beer garden?
gina cruising along, looking good
ann's sprint finish
ann happy to be sitting
gina not sprint-finish
gina subtracting 12 minutes from the race clock for true finish time.
and then I had to walk...
let me just check my lap times.
not too tired to laugh

The B-B clan congratulates you both for such an awesome race!! Great times and superb pictures!! I am so inspired that I may get out and run today...LOL, as it is 10:30am and almost 100 degrees (10 days of over 100 can squelch the most noble of endeavors!)
Nice job, Ann and Gina! Now I can live vicariously through your experience and not have to consider doing a half iron myself thanks to your thorough and funny race report. And yes, I do think the ringer from CA ought to be disregarded, leaving Ann as the rightful 3rd place finisher. : ) This is my first time "blogging", or reading one, so thanks for giving me one more way to spend too much time in front of a screen. Congratulations! May you bask in the glow of your achievement for a long time.
nice job - iron people. Wait till I explain "Iron Man" or "iron woman" to kyle. he'll think you're actual rescue heroes. nice pix. love patty
Congratulations to you both. I have to say, Ann you're beaming in every photo, even that one with your tongue hanging out. :) Either you were having a fabulous day or the blog editor weeded out any photos that may have been less than full-on enthusiastic.
The blog editor ... yes, let's see ... who would that be? Well, it doesn't matter. What matters is that you're beaming in every photo.
Love, Catherine
What great photographs, congratulations to you both you hung in there in really hot weather. Come on the cooler weather for you greenlakers!!!!
