Home again, home again

Jul 28, 2008 11:29

We've just returned from our drive to Lake Placid, NY for Ironman USA, and it's so good to be home. After the race we went down to Philidelphia for a few days to hang with Derrick and Ali, and a great time was had being touristy, eating lots of food, and confronting delicious drinks. On Friday, we got up early and headed back for Austin. We had planned on taking our time driving back, getting home at some point on Sunday, but came to the conclusion that it would be nice to get a whole day at home to recover and a night in our own bed before heading back to work. We ended up driving straight-through to Austin in a grand total of 28.5 hours. Amy and I took turns driving, and I've come to the realization that it definitely gets harder as you get older.

About the race, Amy and I did really well, despite the astoundingly bad race conditions. A race report will follow shortly. In the meantime, shubbe has an excellent report up that covers much of it. I am so insanely proud of her. She's made light-year-length strides this year, and I'm really excited to see where she can go from here.

Now, to see about those 1500 emails awaiting me...
