Thanks to my Hawaii support team

I feel so lucky. My coach attended a Sports Medicine conference here this week.
He knew another person attending, Margarita, who in turn had a couple of other friends in the conference, Bill and Milt. All 4 of them will be volunteering during the race at various places. The 5 of us hung out all week. On Wednesday afternoon, two of Margarita's friends, Lisa and Kim, flew in to town. They are both volunteering for the event on Saturday. Turns out I'm the only athlete competing this year that they know, so I've built up a really nice little support team. They've all been great to hang out with and provide advice (They are all Ironman finishers).
Add to that, my parents arrived on Wednesday evening as well and will be here until Tuesday next week.
Much thanks to this very special group of friends and their support before and during the race! You have all made this week even better than I thought it could have been.
