Oh, It's Over..

This is what it looks like to be painted and folded in half, then opened up again. Or that's how I felt after racing like an animal for 5:50. It was an experience. Heather Holmes (on the left) still had some spunk left. It was an incredibly humbling experience. I've seen things....At first I entertained thoughts of a top 30, then maybe a top 50, then I was hoping to be in the top 50%, another evaluation/ number tossed around was a top 70. 87th sure seems like going to the safety deposit box and finding $10 instead of $10,000. Oh well....Still a seriously priceless experience.

More to come, but right now I'm in the Aussie Camp from hell, outside of Venice. Rick and I hiked in the dolomites for 5+ hours today and we're cooked..

Harlan, The position is not as important as representing and finishing for all of us, and we do REALLY appreciate it (living vicariously through others) What a year or so you've had, the experience alone is so worth it so grab all ya can now!
