After a 16 year layoff from Triathlons, in 2007 at 41 yrs old, I got back into shape and lost 50lbs. In 2009 qualified for Clearwater, 2010 qualified for Kona, 2011 ITU World Championships & Mark Allen Elite Team. In Dec 2012 I was hospitalized for blood clots. In 2014 I did my 12th and final Ironman and decided to pursue every dream and do nothing I don't want to do.

Way to SIU Bryan !!!, While you're feeling like crap the other finishers are still making their way to the end. Hope you feel better, soon. Thanks for the VLOGS and the fun journey!
Good God! I mean...bad God! Wow, the sip of beer at the end really sealed the deal there. You are one of a kind my friend. You'll bounce back quick...definitely in time to attend the meeting tomorrow where they "give away" the golden tickets to the island that shall remain nameless.
Solid work out there, I think the experience at China made this one happen. You were super gutsy out there today. Nice work, nice work!
Well done!, from the video one can tell you've given it all. And shall be reawarded, sir.
moments like this are the ones that put the IM bug in me, thanks for sharing !
You are truly knackered, what a way to suck it up! Great going on 12th place :)
I hope that beer settled your stomach so you could eat your Veyo pie.
Sleep well, you deserve it!
B-
Nice work out there! Way to grind it out, great stuff on the bike!
Thank you for sharing the video post...I was a bit concerned about the setting at first...hahaha
get well
-Derek
My God Bryan, I was worries when I started seeing the video: Beijing Deja vu? But the Coors Light at the end was a nice touch. You should send them this video.
Congrats, this challenge will stay in your mind for a long time.
Bruno.
Congrats on the great finish - sounds like a super tough course! Recover well, and enjoy your beer and pie!
Way to go Bryan! I know I asked for video but from the bathroom? I was alarmed at the setting the entire time thinking, he's not REALLY in there is he?
Hope you feel great this morning after a good sleep and all that food last night. I wonder what's up with your stomach though, sounds crazy.
B- WAY TO GO! You crushed the race! Sucks about the stomach issues... that could be from not getting your beer on the run?! Very impressive showing yesterday and as all of your blog buddies expected, redemption my friend! TAKE THAT CHINA!
In all seriousness, the beer at the end, beautiful :)
Here's to a fast and painless recovery, great job!
This is the face of ironman. I feel for your pain, but it is only temporary. Way to go out there and erase the demons from China. You are well on your way to qualifying for Kona.
Sucks stomachissues you had...but OVERALL EXCELLENT JOB...CONGRATULAITIONS AGAIN...YOU ARE A REALLY IRONMAN!! and I hope you will fastly recover!...I really believe I will see you racing in Kona this year!!
Cheers from Hong Kong!
"XTB" Xavi.
They call it ironman for a reason!!! Great job man. Sub 12 and with so many pitstops!
I hope you're feeling better by now.
Sounds like you had a great race and a rough after race! I hope you are feeling better today!! Congrats! Well on your way to Kona!
Great result, great race and great vlog update. Hope you are feeling better today! Enjoy the beer!
Remember pain is temporary, pride lasts forever!
P.S. If you watch the video without sound it looks like you are in the midst of a large "download" LOL

D, thanks.
B, haha, that's funny, send coors the video. That would be too much. haha. Thanks for the props.
C, Thanks.
A, haha, you have to ask "is he really in there"? You've been following my blog for a little bit, you should know. haha. I think it's the Gatorade. I'll post about it in the next week or two.
