He finished 83rd over all and 23rd in the mens tandem! Good job brother! I'm happy you made it all the way! Quite an accomplishment!

I have this mental image of Dave crossing the finish line with a tie dye shirt wearing those arm swimmy floats and his red beard flowing in the wind  ;D

As pics show, Dave was a happy paddler. But a TIRED happy paddler! I've never seen him at a loss for words, but it was likely due to exhaustion.
He knows ya'll were on hand, vicariously.
Much thanks to Pat and Eric and Paul.
Night-night all!!

Way to go Dave, ya made it. Congrats to you and your paddling partner.  Right respectable in my humble opinion.

Bottom line - he's done what others have dreamed about, or thought about or never considered actually doing.
