Mission Accomplished: Ironman Louisville

I did it. It took me 14 hours 3 min on a hot, hot, hot day to become an Ironman. I'm so happy my knee held up. 14 months ago I had right ACL reconstruction with a graft from my hamstring tendons. I wasn't even sure I'd be able to run marathons like I did prior to my injury. Today I'm an Ironman. Thanks to the support of family and my Team in Training coaches, mentors, and teammates. On such a grueling day, I couldn't have done as well as I did without their coaching and support on the race course. A more detailed race report will follow.
Special thank-you to all my donors who supported my fundraising for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. You share in my moment of triumph, too.
