Great pictures, thanks for posting them.
These swim start pictures remind me of two things…
1)I am thinking right about then…“why the hell did I sign up for this?”
2)So thaaaaat’s what an elbow to the right eye socket feels like!"
I’ve got some good LP stuff somewhere…I will try to find them.
Chris,
It is 20 degrees and freezing rain here, thanks for the walk down memory lane. I remember getting in the water with my dad and just crying lol. What a great day, whats your email again? Ill drop a couple your way.
These pictures always make me smile. It was the start of the day that I qualified for Kona.
Thanks for making me smile on a cold dreary day!

Its funny, all I remember thinking about right before the start was what the hell am I doing here 10 feet off the pier about 10 people back from the line. Seemed like there were a million people behind me. I had taken my where to start advice from someone with a lot of experience but who is also clearly crazy. I was very concerned and being worried about 1800 people running over me in the next 2 minutes kept me from worrying about the however many hours to follow. Turned out to be a great place to start and the most contact free swim of the year.
Chris:
Those are great. I assume these were from 2007. Also, based on the name of this thread did you have another thread with LP pics?
Yep 2007. I had posted some a few days earlier and have a bunch more. Let me know if you want some.
