I met you that morning as we entered the transition area. You had your bike with you. I looked at you, then your bike and realized you were a serious athlete. I said I think you might end up being number one. You smiled and said I am gonna try. I asked if you were an elite racer and you said yes. You were polite and asked about me. I said I was a newbie, you encouraged me to have fun. I did! That was one of the best experiences ever. I finished the race and got my finishers medal. I am hooked. I want you to know one of the highlights of my day was meeting you. I mentioned to many people that I had talked with you briefly. It was very inspirational. I wish you all the best in your athletic endeavors. P.S. Just bought my first road bike-Specialized Ruby Comp. Maybe See you next year at the Danskin. Courtenay, congratulations!

And guess what: I just had an idea. But not sure about your background. So here it comes: you mentioned once that you would like to go to grad school. You should apply for a school that has a running program because I am pretty sure you would get a scholarship, which makes tuition fees way more fun;-) NAIA for example gives scholarships for athletes no matter what age. Division 1 and 2 have agelimits of 25/26. I bet you would get a scholarship and school would be paid for. Just thinking. And off course: GREAT JOB KICKING ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You did great!!!
