NOTES OF



                      SUCCESS


                                                                                           Club Braman Member David McClymont


                        IT WAS SOMEWHERE AROUND MILE THIRTEEN that David
                      McClymont encountered the frayed ends of his rope. He
                      was already over a dozen hours into the 2010 Lake Placid
                      Ironman; his years as a competitive surfer and avid athlete
                      had carried him through the swimming and cycling
                      portions, but the devilish route of the ending marathon
                      cruelly took him within sight of his hotel. A health
                      checkpoint, bestowed with reassuring signage, beckoned
                      him to give in early.
