Ironman just kicks you so hard that I struggle to bounce back quickly when things don't go according to plan. But I realize this type of thing makes me stronger and more adaptable. And isn't that part of the reason we put ourselves out there on the start line? I hope to see you around soon!Cathleen Knutsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03635816369830548255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-49113668219612239082012-06-08T12:46:24.397-07:002012-06-08T12:46:24.397-07:00I can understand the disappointment of not hitting...I can understand the disappointment of not hitting your goal times or busting out the race you expected because I've been there all too many times. But it's these super tough races that make the PRs and awesome results feel that much sweeter, as you look back and realize what you endured and had to power through mentally and physically in order to get there. I bet Ironman Wisconsin will be one of those races for you, and you'll look back at St. George and realize how much stronger that race made you as an athlete and as a person. Huge congrats on enduring and making it to the finish line--I'll always aspire to be as fast as you on a slow day. :)Rebecca Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11419586004142055053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-75462661984939478132012-06-01T05:13:35.228-07:002012-06-01T05:13:35.228-07:00Great job!

Definitely one for the history books, and I think you'll look back and the place or the times won't be what you remember. So many days it's not about going for a PR but about the bigger picture, which you found! Congrats again :)alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14507747312388865728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-2786808493278655792012-05-28T20:15:49.751-07:002012-05-28T20:15:49.751-07:00Thanks for posting!!Thanks for posting!!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09909673345720910959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-91889237518079029042012-05-28T16:38:22.646-07:002012-05-28T16:38:22.646-07:00Cathleen!!
