Iron Man Lake Placid--Go Brook Go!!!

Hey y'all! Get ready, pray hard, and wish Brook much success in tomorrow's Iron Man Lake Placid! We are all up here now, enjoying the gorgeous scenery and making sure that all is in order for Brook to Swim/Bike/Run tomorrow.

If you want to follow his progress once the race has started (at 7am!), go to this site, and follow the instructions there (his bib number is 1592). You should be able to get split times during the race. He is thinking that he'll finish in about 15 hours, so he should be crossing the finish line at about 10:00pm.

Both Malcolm and I are hoping to get some pictures from the race. If we can find a wireless signal, we'll post during the day.

Oh, and Lake Placid is a really fun place! While Brook was resting today we took a Gondola up Whiteface Mountain (Malcolm had to be the brave one when it stopped mid-ascent and both Max and I started crying...it stinks to be afraid of heights...) for some fantastic views of the area. We also hiked along High Mountain Gorge and saw some fab waterfalls. Lots of photos to post sometime soon.

If you want a live update during the race, call my cell phone: 609-651-4921.
