“If you challenge yourself to finish an ironman, you can do anything.” ~ Unbekannt
Yesterday, while Tropical Storm Irene swept through the Northeast, my husband Edward was competing in his very first ironman…the place ~ Louisville Kentucky…the course ~ a 2.4 mile swim in the Ohio River, a 112 mile bike ride through the beautiful Kentucky countryside and historic town of La Grange, and a 26.2 mile run through the heart of Louisville…Edward crossed the finish line in 14 hours, 35 minutes and 2 seconds…he is now an ironman! I want to dedicate today’s post to Edward…my inspiration, my love, my ironman…

Thanks Honey! I could not have done it without your support!
Message to Edward: I knew you would make it! Congratulations…what an awesome (and awe-inspiring) performance.
YOU DA MAN!! ( the “ironman,” that is.)
Hope the recovery time isn’t too bad…enjoy a little rest 🙂
Love, Liz
Love the picture Danielle. Congratulations Edward. We are anxious to hear all about it. Unbelievable.
The REAL DEAL!! Way to go Edward!!
oh wow!! I am impressed…
what a feat!! some day, I plan to
run a 5k..or maybe walk it..
no, I’ll just stand on the sidelines and
cheer others..that’s about as good as I
can do..so it is really impressive when someone
else does it because I know it’s not easy..
and I’m sure Danielle, you were very supportive and
deserve a little recognition too.. 🙂
best to you both,
maureen

congratulations!
