What's the big deal? I could have easily done that if I'd have been willing to put down my rum and Sierra Mist...NOT!!! Couldn't have done it period even with a team of sports medicine specialists trailing me with an IV drip! Congratulations on a wonderful and amazing personal accomplishment Andrew! What's next? Disney World?? :-D

Suddenly "I'll get to it next year" doesn't feel like his style...

Impressive work, again, Andrew!

Ran into Andrew this morning. He was stretching his legs, walking along the Cottonwood Pass Rd at 7 AM. Said the legs were feeling pretty good. Said he might go scout out the CT section coming down off Princeton to the road later this morning. He thought he lost some time between Princeton and Yale. Wasn't too happy about that. Seriously, Andrew, can't you enjoy this just a little longer before planning to crush it even further? I think he wants to take a few more hours off his time.

Way to go, Andrew!
