"Several months ago, I competed in my first Ironman. For those of you who don't know, it's a race consisting of a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and 26.2 mile run. It's tough. It took me 9 months of blood, sweat, and tears (literally) to train. It's kind of a big deal. \n\nAnywho.... I asked one of my Ironman friends for a recommendation and she sent me here. I came in on a Thursday and was welcomed and greeted right away. Points for this, since I don't have black hair or lots of piercings/tattoos. I explained what I wanted, put down a deposit, and made an appointment for the next day.\n\nFriday came, and I went in for my appointment with Jon. Since it's a simple symbol he was familiar with, it was easy for him to pull it up on the computer and adjust it to what I wanted. Several minutes later we went into a private room, I got comfortable, and we were off. \n\nTwenty minutes later we were done and I was happy. Two weeks later it's looking pretty good and I love showing it off! \n\nI recommend this place and will return if I want to get it touched up!"^^ . "5"^^ . "2"^^ . "2010-03-06T00:00:00"^^ . "3"^^ . .
