At Work At Home With the Kids
OMG - I did that to my kids - we were skiing last weekend and my younger son (10) was complaining about something and I told him he needed to HTFU!!!! lmao! I said something similiar to my 5 yr old niece. I set up a mini-tri for her and she started to get frustated putting socks on wet feet in T1. She was in the huffy stage, pre-tears...I yelled, "suck it up! There is no crying in Transition!" Here's one for the list....you're always in some stage of dampness.....sweat, pool, or from one of the 3 or more showers you've taken for the day! |

| Extreme Veteran 442 | Subject: RE: You Know You're Training Too Much When ... Yep - HTFU has entered our family's vocabulary too, at least mine and my husband's. It has been mentioned in regard to our kids' actions (scared of dark being one of them), though never said directly to them! Tracy |

Oh wait--the mail man knows your route, as do any other Fedex delivery people, the trash pick up guys time All the geezers out walking their dogs ask "how many miles today?" when they see you running (again) You no longer wash anything BUT work out gear, undergarments, towels and whatever you wore to that job you do to support the tri habit

| Master 1303 Mishicot, Wisconsin | Subject: RE: You Know You're Training Too Much When ... This thread is great! I have a few to add.... When you kiss your boyfriend/girlfriend and they ask how the pool was even though you swam 10 hours ago.
When you start thinking about your next training session before you have even finished the one you are doing.
And finally, when you are a college student and it is Friday night and you have gotten asked out by a cute guy and you choose to not go out with him because you know you have a big workout in the morning and you know you need the sleep more than the date. |

| Master 1695 STL | Subject: RE: You Know You're Training Too Much When ... When you swear your kids' soccer coach is stalking you because he passes you (in his truck) EVERY weekend on your long run...even though you NEVER take the same route and NEVER see him in the same spot either! Your swimsuits are wearing thin, literally, and you figure as long as your white butt cheek isn't showing, you've still got some time left. When at 6am your restless because you are sleeping in by 3hours and getting up at 6:30--on the weekend! Edited by goobergirl98 2008-02-23 11:48 AM |

When your friends and family replace "hi, how are you?" with "So what distance did you do today?" as their standard greeting towards you. And of course they always say it in that tone of voice that lets you know they think you are completely insane, but they kind of envy you. |
