PUMPKIN WOMAN!

BEST RACE EVER!!!!
Felt calm cool collected in the water. Paced myself well.
Exited the water in the first 1/3 of the women.
Smooth transition 1 until I dropped my chain on the bike 2 times... But helpd it together and fixed it - no prob.
Kday said I rocked the bike!
1+ hours of climbing on the bike and I felt amazing!
The interval training paid off.
I even rocked the final 8% hill climb at the end and felt great.
Hauled A on the run and finished strong with a little puke in my mouth and a tear in my eye.

THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO CHEERED ME ON AND PRAYED FOR ME. I FELT EVERY ONE OF YOU!
More later.... It's mega vaycay time with me mister  man and little lady.

 P.S.... My race number was 920... 9+2+0= 7
How could I get any luckier!!!
Peace out.

Yay! I am so happy for you. You have worked hard on those killer intervals. I looked at the vertical maps of the course and it looked tough. Good job! Enjoy the rest of your trip.
