Thought you might like a few pictures from the event. I don't have any of the athletes because we were busy cheering them on. If you were there, I sure hope you saw us! We take our job very seriously and will cheer every daYum person. It's a long day, 140.6 miles is no freakin joke....We may have achieved our 140.6 beer goal for the day as well.
Me and my swim coach
At the ~40ish and ~80ish mile marker on the bike - rockin our cheer line! There was a free flash to anyone that went by, maybe a moon here and there, whatever it takes. WE will do whatever it takes to get a smile out of those athletes - amateur and pro alike.
Just before the swim start...just before the angry pirate stepped on my foot with a bike shoe (OUCH!)
This was my run poster for my coach that I did not get up in the concrete jungle.
So much more to come! Can't wait to hear about everyone's weekend and the weekend of racing. I DO love an ironman - not enough to sign up for another. I'm still eying that 24 hour tri...
