Hey Guys,

     I can't believe this season is over tomorrow!!! Where did the year ago??? This is Ironman event #5 for this year, and it has been an incredible ride! I am so excited for tomorrow... I am going to give it my all, and I will need my all to get through tomorrow. This course is NO JOKE, couple that with winds that are calling for 10-20 MPH plus higher gusts. This course is hilly, and is either up or down, not much flat at all. It will be a great challenge, but I am prepared and it will be fun. I thank you all for your support, you have been awesome. Here's to a great race and a great year.... Viva La Vida !!!! I am BIB # 2244 and take off at 8:20am or so, wave #15. Track me at www.ironmanlive.com good niote ya'll... catch ya on the flipside ( I am meeting Darrell and his daughters for dinner)

 Good swim: 35:45
Hope the bike is going well for him!

 Way to go Dan -- can't wait to read the report

I was super excited when I saw that he was top 10 out of the swim.
I am really looking forward to hearing the race report.  Everything looks like a respectable race, he must have had a group of runners in his division.

Congrats on an another completed race Dan, I really do look to what you have accomplished when I try to set goals for myself.
