My DH said this to me tonight as he attempted to explain why I might be a better runner than someone else. He said that I draft off them and they pull me forward.

He is not a triathlete, obviously.

LOL!!! Wind tunnel to test out the hypothesis?  If that is true I wonder what breast size would be the optimal for running?  Which bra's are more aero?  Would going braless help or hurt (I imagine it would hurt but in a different way)?  So much research and so little time.  I think I shall go back to school and get my PHd and use this for my thesis. Tongue out

I know if there is a nice set of breasts in front of me, they help my momentum and assure I have the proper forward lean.

Big noses help for aerodynamics as well.

I think women should be penalized 30seconds per cup size due to the added floatation provided by breasts during the swim.  It's just not fair.

I know a girl who said she wanted to get implants consisting of sand so she could qualify for the Athena class.

I have nothing to add. Just came in because we were talking about breasts. Carry on now.

If she's in front of you, how do you see them?

If they are in front of you and you can't see them, what do you do?  You run a little faster so you can, right?

Screw pics, we need videos and wind tunnel tests.

If we get those this this needs to be an Epic Sticky (and watch BT membership rise 149.72%)
