Ironman

"Philip Hake. You ARE an Ironman."

That's what they say as you come through the chute and cross the finish line.

It still gives me chills just thinking about it.

I couldn't be more proud of my little Phillie:)

I think he looks pretty good for someone who just finished an 11 hour 54 minute race. More pics to come...

26.2

The view at mile 11. Hard not to be inspired when this is your view for 26 miles.

I did it! 26.2 on the record books! I will post more detail about my running experience and the trip as a whole later but for now, a few pics and data for my records. I'm already wanting to sign up for another one. Rome 2012????

And yes, that is my own personal paparazzi behind me:)
