Elite 3650    Laurium, MI | Subject: RE: You Know when you're a hardcore triathlete when??? When planning a family vacation you spend more time finding local pools and races then actually planning the vacation You can recite from memory how many calories you had for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and break them down into fat, carb and protein ratios but can't balance your check book You have and use enough tech clothing to do an entire load of delecates When looking for a new home, your primary criterea was proximity to nearby riding and running routes You consider your bike on its trainer a major piece of furnature and don't understand why your wife gets upset with you for leaving it set up in the living room. You have ever smelled fresh bleached clothes and been turned on |

When you go on vacation you pack more bike shorts than nice clothes. |

Pro 3906 Libertyville, IL | Subject: RE: You Know when you're a hardcore triathlete when??? Sub zero, 100+ degrees, or exceedingly windy days are seen as an opportunity to train under adverse conditions and are seen as big positives while sane people are dressed or sheltered accordingly.

Champion 19812 MA | Subject: RE: You Know when you're a hardcore triathlete when??? When your husband tells you he'll take you anywhere you want for your 20th wedding anniversary and you find a bike trip to Greek Islands to go on and now packing involves what athletic wear to bring, if I should bring my wetsuit, and how much training can I get in? We leave next week! We have more bikes than people in our family and seem to be buying a new bike every couple months as I get more of my family to join in in my triathlon lifestyle.
