We just need chip in to get Fleck a decent haircut, kinda got a Dracula look going on.

Typical tough crowd here on ST. Now the hair has to be perfect to!

At 46 I am just happy to have hair to cut ;)

Wicked job out there Steve. You were the best of the colour commentators. :) Ever thought about going into TV? :)

Seriously, you did a great job, Steve. Thanks for making it so much more interesting to watch.

You did a great job on the commentary... probably one of the best I've seen on IMlive. It was nice that both you and Lovato went beyond the really basic stuff (ie 'it's mile 20 and they're really going to start hurting now') to bring us more insightful observations of the race. I still wish I coulda been there to see if with my own eyes, though!

Will you be back in Austin anytime soon?

Thanks again everyone. I will pass on the remarks and the comments to the folks at NAS.

Less really IS More!!!!! hee hee. Nah. Not training for 6 weeks may not have been the best IM strategy, but without it I'm not sure I'd have made it here at all. But today I'm a hurtin' unit.

Great to meet you Khai. It was good to meet everybody else too! And thanks to AndyPants for cheering me on all day! That was a huge boost!!!
