Hopefully the next journey in the Williams household will be just as rewarding, if not more so!! Chin up Tom and hope to catch up with you soon<br /><br />DebraDebrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11355655696716198442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4532067238805209110.post-30319605062236980132010-05-31T19:01:25.653+02:002010-05-31T19:01:25.653+02:00Tom! Mate, thanks so much for the mention in Mara ...Tom! Mate, thanks so much for the mention in Mara Talk :) Very kind. Means a huge amount!! <br /><br />Great blog and talk on Lanza, such an incredible journey and part of the inspiration that I fed off on that battle in Lanza was from you and how you have stuck at it through your racing and training. <br /><br />Whilst it might be a pain for you, your definitely at the top of my list of people to call for some help and guidance when it comes to this mad sport....your journey will certainly play a big part of my drive to try and get to Kona, so thank you.<br /><br />Hopefully catch up with you and Helen again over the summer. Ill be up at the Outlaw to support so if not sooner, see you then. <br /><br />Thanks mate. <br />TomTom Newmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359771329859473596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4532067238805209110.post-86642499868521255302010-05-31T09:06:11.319+02:002010-05-31T09:06:11.319+02:00Sounds like an incredible race day, full of highs ...Sounds like an incredible race day, full of highs and lows. Ironman racing can be very predictable, you know the pace you'll swim at, the watts you can generate on the bike, etc, etc but at the same time it is so unpredicatable and that can be so so cruel.<br /><br />I have massively enjoyed training and racing with you mate, you have certainly lifted my game.<br /><br />You say you might be hanging up your tri suit and wheels, so it's going to have to be running shoes if we are to continue "monster session hunting" Or do you fancy some Team Adventure Racing? now there's a thought.......Ben Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18446300371587621782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4532067238805209110.post-76019828745910483412010-05-31T06:00:10.799+02:002010-05-31T06:00:10.799+02:00A gripping read fella, like swimming, biking and r...A gripping read fella, like swimming, biking and running it with you. And, I confess, I teared up at the end for ya -- a little choker! You should be a writer!!!<br />You've been on an epic journey,and it's one few of us will ever know so thanks for taking us there. Be proud because your 'almost made it' (and umpteen medals) is many people's impossible. In terms of what you've accomplished with your journey and what you've discovered about your human spirit, you have conquered far more than making it to Kona.

What a journey, not just on the day, but for the last 5 years. <br /><br />I know it might be hard to stomach at the moment, but in your own words: "It's about the journey not the destination."<br /><br />Looking forward to your reflections and to find out what your next journey is going to be.<br /><br />RgierRogier, Natalie, Rhys & Finleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00235274986063622370noreply@blogger.com
