Josh was right…..it is a nightmare (after the first 40 minutes).

The first 20 minutes are hell, then when you finally get in a groove after about 2000 yards it isn’t so bad. During the 1st 2000 yards I thought of every excuse in the book to stop.

Wah, wah, wah! Stop your complaining, you signed yourselves up for it!!
Seriously… you guys did an awesome job. Josh is disgustingly consistent and your turns have gotten a lot better. Then, there were the 3 “stooges,” who show up unannounced w/out forms, timers, counters… And lastly, there I was the amateur timer/counter tossing one of my 2 watches in the water trying to let Kim know she was @the 1000… Geez! This is exactly why I don’t do distance! Good job again! ck-b
