It's hard to look cool I think getting out of the pool. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() That's the first time I have ever seen anyone wearing a snorkel during an actual race. I wonder if he had training wheels on his bike ????? |

![]() At the pool yesterday I saw a guy swimming with a snorkel. He definitley was a swimmer, had a great/beautiful stroke and all, so I figured he was working some drills. Never seen it before, but thought it was interesting. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hello everyone. Sorry I wasn't on the boards these past few days. Kim, all my love goes out to you and your family. AND SUPER JOB ON THAT HALF. You are my hero!! John - do you see who is starting off the season on the podium? I wouldn't get too hyped up in that trash talking if I were you. Way to go SAM. Tony and Stan - way to be stellar, as usual. Great job boys. Glen - I second what everyone else said about climbing hills. Just be patient and find your happy place. And remember to change your gears at the top our you'll be flying down the hill out of control and not having your gears in place to help. (not that I've ever done anything that uncool) Speaking of uncool - Kim, I DON'T PEE ON THE BIKE just in the wetsuit ![]() Speaking of peeing in the water, have you ever tried to pee WHILE swimming? That is very difficult and takes serious muscle control and lots of practice. (Hint Doug, don't swim directly behind me at Jordan). This is a useful trick for long races. It means one less pit stop on the bike. This only works for long, open water swims for those of us that plan on being in the water for longer than 40 minutes. There, now everyone has one more skill to master for their open water swimming sessions. Sorry, I'll shut up now........... |

I think I have seen it a few times, people on ST bring it up every so often (I'll check Wikipedia). Just like some races won't allow you to have your shoes clipped on the bike in transition. USAT allows it but specific races say that you can't due to people being stupid and looking down at their shoes instead of where they are going and crashing into others. |

PS. I am totally behind on the chatter...according to John it isn't worth me trying to catch up! Short version: Kim continues to be a ROCK STAR. Sam and Tony had a great weekend, with Sam getting a podium finish on a great run. Some pic were posted of a tri with an indoor pool swim. Some funny ones including a guy who wore a snorkel. Posts about whether the snorkel is legal. Then posts about reading the rules and athlete's guide. Posts about knowing the rules. Posts about the fact that shoes not allowed to be clipped on at Lonestar. Trevor and John going back and forth with one another about editing each other's posts and who is slower to respond with a quick retort to the other. I think that catches you up since the weekend. Sorry if I missed anything/anyone. |
