It was so good to see you in Louisville even though it was a short visit. Hope that I am able to catch another race of yours someday soon. The run was a rough one but it just proves how tough you are. All that trouble and still got 10th place! You are awesome! So sorry I had to skip out while you were being poked and proded in the ER. Motherly duties called but so glad that Luce kept me in the loop. Hope you are well on your way to full recovery and hope that you have a strong finish in IM Hawaii!! Good luck! XOXO-Nicole P.S. We had a blast last weekend and wished you were able to make it....maybe for the 15 year reunion. Hey sista!! It was so good to see you in Louisville even though it was a short visit.

That hospital thing sounds awful. In Kona go straight into the water, last year Bree and I just laid there in it while everyone else hit the pizza and the med tent.. it makes everything feel better. Recover well and see you soon! Love the photos of you crazy girls! Oh crap – I didn’t know it was such a hard day for you! That hospital thing sounds awful.

It's horrible to see the stress, pain, and discomfort you went thru post race... not to mention NOT BEING ABLE TO EAT! Again, this only reassures what kind of character you truly are. You bike split was smokin' and your marathon splits were above the norm (especially taking the conditions into consideration). You're an amazing athlete and I only see good things coming out of you in Kona. Enjoy the remainder of your training as well as a good taper up to the Kona. I look forward to seeing what else you have to say leading up to the big dance! Take care and rest easy -AJ Hey Katya,

You looked so good out there... I was walking, talking, dying a slow death (that was my first and HOPEFULLY last time walking a marathon) and you kept on running by on the other side cheering! My gosh you look good for having a body all messed up and ready for the ICU! OKay, recover well... Kona will be better, I will be cheering for you and Hillary like nothing you ever heard before!!! Oh, and that bike... KILLER ride, you may not be the faster chick outta the water but darn you can ride with ANYONE! For crying out loud Katya I had NO IDEA all this was going on during your run.
