If you've been following my blog you probably read the story about the flying nun, Madonna Buder. She's 78 years old and still running the Boston and completing Ironman and I don't think there is a finer soul than she. I have been wanting to meet her and invite her to be a member of the idropboys.com club.
Tim's parents were aware of this wish and went to great lengths to arrange a suprise meeting with Madonna Buder. THANKS BRUCE & CINDY
With a blessing from Madonna Buder.....what more could we need.

Thanks ladies,
I thought of all your words of wisdom and the IM pearls you shared with me. I had a lot of little bobbles but I fixed them and moved on. I knew I wasn't the only one with these challenges. You ladies rock the bike and Ironman yourself. Certainly we will ride and when we get off the bike I hope to chase after you speed demons on a run.
Hugs and Thanks,
Jen
You are welcome. Your face lit up and is still glowing which resulted in a PR marathon time, or thereabouts, no? You kept everything under control and were very successful. Your tri buddies can't keep up now. You will be smokin at IAZ, maybe 11:20, eh eh.
Thanks. I am still glowing. My SD tri buddies will certainly keep up. We will all go fast. I didn't quite PR the marathon. I thought it would be uber cool to PR a marathon at an Ironman.I actually needed to run 30 about minutes faster. It was however faster than my 1999 anemic marathon of over 5 hours....ugg while my poor Mom and Dad waited in the rain and wind. It was my goal, my vision, and my dream to PR my marathon at CDA. I did not deliver, but I kept on trucking, and I will keep on trucking. My vision actually had meaning running fast,in the dark with a glow stick. Maybe that's an IMAZ vison.
