Its the night before Kona and I have never been so excited for a race.  I spent the day getting something organised for Meg and doing some training.  I have never been so proud of anyone in my life and I have never felt so emotional about a sporting event.  This is Meg's grand final, her everest her moment.  What waits for her out on the course is hard to describe.  I know many people have done Ironman but this is kona and there is a difference...this is

THE IRONMAN

Prior to being here I knew that Kona was special. But now I have been apart of this week I understand it so much more.  whoever you are, whatever it takes, you must get here.  if not as a competitor as a spectator.  This is our Mecca, our holly land.  I cannot wait for my chance here one day, but for now I am the proudest husband on earth and cant wait to cheer my wife tomorrow.

If you want to support Megs journey hit the link at the top of the page and donate to Childrenshour.org.ph  this would make her very happy and the experience even more worth while.
