Thanks everyone. I just had to share this, too.

Today at church, a woman told me I inspired her to try a tri. That was quite the compliment (and probably the first time I've ever inspired anyone at church, haha!)

Then tonight at my in-laws, I was telling them about my great triathlon experience and mentioned that I was doing a tri in their city in two weeks. I joked with my 13-year-old brother-in-law that he should do the kids' race at the same event.

By the end of the night, he was telling me how he wants to do an Ironman and he filled out his registration form for the kids race. We also went and looked at the course, and he just wouldn't stop talking about how excited he was to "tri" it.

This stuff really is contagious!

Great job made even more impressive by your being an inspiration to others. When others tell me I inspire them, it helps me to push that much harder not to let them down. Keep being an inspiration for us all
