Congratulations, Ali! What a huge accomplishment! What a wonderful way to take care of yourself... I love that way of thinking!

Well done, Ali. Good on you for your focus and tenacity. Truly an inspiration to get going with those 'secret' desires we wish to pursue ourselves. Congratulations!

This is amazing Ali! You 'done' good and the feeling of refinding your path looks wonderful on you.

very cool. i had tears in my eyes while i read this, i'm proud of you.

I can 'hear' the joy in your voice as I read this post. Congratulations on completing the tri. It is great that you started your athlete journey while your kids are young, I started when my youngest was 10 and I don't know what a waited for. I am a better mom and person when I feel healthy, not to mention, able to keep up with the rest of the family. Way to go, Ali!

I have tears in my eyes too! how inspiring for all of us! Congratulations Ali!!

Wow what an inspiration. You can tell how wonderful this was for you - you were positively beaming. What a great accomplishment! Enjoy the rush.

too funny! I did the SAME thing for my first time on saturday. My mom, who is an avid reader of your blog, messaged me this morning and told me to come over and read this. I guess being in a triathlon is the new thing for 2010 :) But next year my mom is joining me.
Congrats! Well done!
