Horrible run. Started out okay, but then the wheels fell off completely and I couldn't muster much pace. On a positive note, I ran the last 5km as fast as I could so that I could finish the race in under 15 hours -- I came in with a final time of 14:59:46! (1hour 37 minutes faster than in 2007) It was a looooooong day. We're doing it again next year, and I'm aiming to take even more time off and setting a new PB.
Believe it or not, I watched you cross the line on the video stream while waiting for a friend of mine to finish. You are an Ironman and an inspiration. Well done.

oh, cool! Okay, to prove it -- what did the announcer say as I was crossing the finish line? :)

Heck I can't remember - I do remember that he specifically said that there were a few runners in the loop and they could beat 15 hours. My friend Dave came in about 12 minutes later. If I recall correctly, you came in with a woman who also just beat the 15 hour time.

oh, all i meant was that he said "Derek Featherstone... you.... are... an IronMan!" :) good to meet you, virtually... maybe we'll get for a run sometime when I'm in Toronto?

Drop me a line next time you're in town. I'm sure the gang at the Running Room would welcome an Ironman for a Sunday run. By the way, love the blog theme on ironfeathers.ca - really nice stuff.

Prepare the yellow jersey. Lance has some new competition.
