Now I'm GLAD I didn't call your name louder after you'd gone past me, Lani! That turning around could have been the difference! You were in a pretty tight crowd, too, so that could have been an issue (and why I didn't see you until you were past me).
I did yell out Lorree's name when she hadn't gone as far past me, but I don't think loud enough.
But did get a hug from THPoohBear, Fairestoneofall, disneyfunfamily4, Hannahbelle, and the DHs of the last two.
I had a blast out there cheering. Saw just about all the finishers except probably the last few. I waited until there was quite a bit of time between people, but didn't wait for the trailing bikes. The Sag Wagon guy who was parked near me, said they probably wouldn't sweep involuntarily at that point, because it wasn't on roads by then.
There was one woman that stopped that was going to throw in the towel, but I'm not sure if she drank a sip of water and sat for a minute, or did something else (bio freeze maybe) with the medics, but she did decide to go for it. I was very proud of her!
But then, I'm very happy for everyone that braved the course and the miles and completed the race.
