I’m just amazed that Dave had the energy to do 50yds of butterfly at some point!

Thanks Chuck!  I would like to note that I came out of the water within 30 seconds of the Barnes' both years – first with Jack then with Ben. :)

Dave - tell Ben that he did absolutely amazing and we are so proud of his achievement. And he left an Ironman behind in his wake.

I appreciate the summary, Chuck! I had a phenomenal time escorting Ben through his first pier to pier, and helping him overcome his palpable fear of the ocean!  He did great!!  The pictures tell the story!
