Corona Time

The last coordinates I received were 1 mile from the finish, and that was at 16:54, so KiwiBird has likely had a quick shower, packed up her gear and headed home....

Just kidding. WaterTribe shows her finishing in 5 days, 10 hours, 15 minutes. Translated, she hit the beach at 5:15 pm EST. That's not a bad time to be on the beach in Key Largo, especially when it's the sunset side.

Let's review what's just been accomplished: Most of all, she's spent a week doing what she loves with like-minded people. But some of us enjoy minutiae, so here are a few details: First in Class 1 (or 2), first woman, a record time for a woman, improved on last year's time by 22 hours (rounded off). Bravo!

Now it's time for her to tell you about it. (Okay, give her a couple of days.) Enjoy.--Floatsome

Floatsome - thanks for keeping us up-to-date. And also for the diagnoses and prophecies, regardless of their veracities. Kristen - great stuff. You done good, as Cramp would have said.

Nicely done Kiwi. I applaud your dedication from my frozen armchair in Minnesota.
