DeterMination

Two years ago at IM Canada, I was inspired by the Ironman "DeterMination" shirt.  When we went to IMAZ 2010, I saw the shirt again and pretty much commanded to Nick, "If I cross that finish line next year, you're buying me that shirt."  However, when I saw the shirt at IMAZ 2011, I was disappointed at the color/design and decided not to get it.  Fortunately, the 2012 season brings a redesigned shirt, and Nick bought it for me.  This shirt means more to me than my medal.  And, I hope to keep it forever!
