I can't say enough good things about this. Congrats to all finishers (yes, and also to those who could not finish). I'm an old man now, but I think I've never had as harrowing a visual experience as this one. I caught my breath every time Damien Desbosses had to adjust his goggles! Still . . . what an experience just to witness this from the safety of my home in Salt Lake City! Many, many thanks.
