Chris on the run - no pictures of me - I must have been going too fast! (ha ha)

And the finish line - woop woop! Too bad that big guy had to finish right in front of me. I had thought about sprinting around him at the end, but just didn't have the gumption. Besides, I didn't want to be an a **hole there are too many of them out there as it is!
Mike Reilly - telling everyone: 'You are an Ironman'
Chris at the finish line!
And our finisher pictures - just looking our best - ha!
