You Know You're a Triathlete When...

When you aredone with a run, cool down, start dinner, sit down for dinner and realize that you haven't removed your HRM yet.

--happened Sunday night

you are always eating and refer to meals in # form - lunch #1, supper #2, breakfast #1...

...any non-tri race is "just a..." as in "just a 10k".

...you don't even think twice about getting up at 4:00 to drive two hours to spend 2+ hours doing intense effort activities, and then drive home.  In fact, you think it's FUN, and plan your entire life around it.

...a day without a workout is like a day without sunshine. 

You don't cry at weddings or funerals but you do cry at the end of an Ironman TV broadcast (watching the midnight finishers reach their goal just before the cut-off).

Happening right now.  I HATE taper!

You decide to call having sex as "T-3" in order to justify the allocation of time for it.

You probably call it that to justify how how quick you get through it.

Hey you gotta have priorities man!  Faster too if you wear a red speedo.

You go to a work meeting in running clothes, drenched in sweat from your 6 mile lunch run...and everyone just accepts that it me, training for another race. 

(this was when i worked at a different company...can't do it at this one.)

You've convinced your spouse to let you wear a heart rate monitor during sex just to see how hard you can go.  (actually done this!)

You keep packets of Hammergel in the night stand instead of condums.

TMI methinks
