Dear Ali,
I am crying tears of joy for you! Way to go! Outstanding gift you gave to yourself and everyone around you - what an attitude of positive inpiration!

You are so amazing! Congratulations! You did it! You are writing a better story for yourself. I just finished reading a "Million Miles in a Thousand Years". Thanks for the suggestion.

Congratulations, it sure looks like you had a great time! You should be very proud of yourself, and you are such an inspiration to us all!

You go woman! You set a goal and achieved it! You are setting a wonderful example for your children too. As my fitness idol Cathe says.."Committ to get fit"...
That smile of you holding that medal is huge - you should be proud.

Go Ali! My first sprint tri is this coming Sunday and you have me all excited!

yay!!! you did it!!!! great job!
this is inspires me to continue running. i've been laying low that last 2 weeks. been crazy busy here and just haven't taken the time to train.
i ran my first 1/2 marathon this spring, and another the following month.
i know what you mean with trying it out first, then training and tweaking it for a more conpetitive approach.
thanks for the inspirtaion. i want to lace up tonight and see where my shoes take me!
running has changed my life, maybe one day i'll try a triathlon!!!

So awesome. This story. This doing. This being happy n the accomplishment, and not judging or insulting your hard work. I loved reading this and loved seeing all these pictures with you in it.

2010 is definitely the year of the scrapbooker as athlete! Totally enjoying seeing your accomplishment. You and Cathy have inspired me to start walking again. Can't say I am doing so great in the extreme heat advisory days.
Clapping for you!
