Congrats Sheri. As a long distance runner and a triathlete myself I know what an accomplishment doing the full course is. It's awesome awesome awesome awesome!
My race resume isn't as impressive as yours but I'm gaining on you! I'm doing a quarter distance event in Galveston in a couple weeks along with around 12 sprints and olympic distance races over the next 6 months. My first half will be at the end of the summer. Gonna volunteer for the full in Florida this year so I can get in next year and then comes the hoping and praying that I can get in via the lottery for Kona in 2009.
Once again congrats! I'm in awe of your accomplishment.

CHAD IS A ROCKSTAR!
Since you're volunteering...PERFECT time to sign up for next year's race! You don't have to pay the ridiculous fee until the end of Nov.
I'm HOPING to be there. My coach is racing as well as many friends. I'm guessing I won't be able to go b/c it's peak. I'm racing IMAZ in November...
Also-IMLP in July....and Gulf Coast Tri (half iron) this may. GREAT RACE!
If you ARE gonna sign up for IMFL, do GCT...almost the SAME course!
If I can do an IM...anyone can.
My first was a sprint in oct/06...2nd was GCT half in May 07...did 2 sprint relays and IMFL this past november!
YAY!!!!!!!! Another TRIATHLETE!
