Thank you to all who have reached out in one way shape or form! It is all wonderful.
Tonight, some of my tri buddies had a party/dinner for me and Doreen. Thank you Ashley and Tara, for hosting us :) And to Derek, Ken, Bridget, and Caitie for coming to hear about our experiences and share in the excitement. Ash is the best and so creative and made us a fabulous cake!
This was just tonight.
The day after the race, my parents and friends gave me cards and beautiful jewelry that I love. I have been wearing them everyday since the race :) A reminder to me of the experience, and has been so great as I have a rough introduction to reality this week. I LOVE them - thanks everyone, and especially Mom, Dad, Aunt Mimi and Jean Ann!
The other surprise this week was when my neighbors and good friends decorated my car! Samantha, I'm guessing this was mostly you (but didn't want to take any credit away from Sam). Thanks for telling me that the world needed to know about my accomplishment, and that I'm an Ironman ;)
Can't say it enough, thanks to all of the selfless things to all who have done something for me, I continue to be moved!
