Champion  5781     Northridge, California |  Subject: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do?I'll leave the interpretation of "tri-geekiest" up to you. I was inspired to post this when I added my latest swim cap to... ...my complete, chronological, collection of swim caps from all my tri's. (Which is about to enter its third year.) |

Expert 1139 Austin | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? Constantly recalculating expected race times based on current training pace (I know useless) Spending way too much time posting on BT (and lurking on ST, since I can't bring myself to post there) |

Expert 1073 scottsdale, az | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? going up to strangers and asking if they're a triathlete..... MOST the time I'm right. They have a different look than JUST runners or cyclists. |

Master 1359 South of SLC | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? I check out calves all the time. I have to admit to checking many a woman's calves and starting conversations with, "Wow you have great calves. Are you a runner or cyclist?" No joke. Mike |

Extreme Veteran 547 Canyon Hills (Lake Elsinore), CA | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? Drink a bottle of wine with my wife but think about my 25 mile ride and my weight lifting session in the morning. Yep, I just got punched in the shoulder. Oh yeah, and I'm on BT and it's Friday night. Edited by Tim_H 2009-08-07 10:09 PM |

Master 1690 Metro NY Area | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? I listen to tri and endurance sports podcasts in my car all the time. I visit BT many times a day. I flew to Kona just to watch the Oct 82 Ironman and I didn't know anyone in it. |

Champion 7547 Albuquerque, New Mexico Bronze member | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? Not so much tri-specific, but a long time ago when I was swimming laps I'd get in the pool to swim 4500 yards (90 laps). I'd count: 1/90 |

| Member 14 | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? I made myself an inclinometer and then drove my bike courses with it taped inside my car....for no good reason other than just to know the grade of the hills on my bike route. I'm embarrassed. Thats geeky x10. |

| Member 54 | Subject: RE: What's the tri-geekiest thing you do? I do the same thing except it is with bib numbers (my complete, chronological, collection of Bib numbers) ...including the breakdown of the race times on the back of each one (Swim, Bike, run, T1, T2, total time and overall placing!) Perhaps it is just a little obsessive compulsive |
