Triathlon?
  • cutchinscutchins March 2009
    Any of you guys/gals ever competed in a triathlon? Ever thought about it? Thinking about doing it? Just curious. I've suddenly become interested.

    Hey I did lasertag last week...totally not as fun as I remember it. I want to do paintball so bad..never tried.


    On the Triathlon...

    I haven't obviously, but out of everyone I would probably think Phil might have? He can swim bike and run...which is a triatholon right?

    Interesting news on digg recently http://www.physorg.com/news157482153.html

    yes it is.

    Yep, haven't done one since...04. I got a little bored with endurance sport, but the feeling of completing a good endurance event is something everyone should do at least once. Be it, triathlon, 100 mile bike ride (heres looking at you Tom), or marathon. Maybe not a lifestyle, but certainly worth doing once.

    You'll lose a bunch of your muscle, training for it, because its a different type of fitness.

    I suggest doing a sprint or Olympic distance one first. The Half Iron-Man is really grueling. And you can't compete in an Iron Man until you post a respectable Half time (they don't want people dying).

    Sprint = 400m swim, 10k bike, 5k run
    Olympic = 1.5k swim, 40k bike, 10k run

    Its quite the experience. Don't spend too much on your bike, and make sure you can swim pretty good!

    Here in MI, they do a 24 hour bike challenge. It might be something cool to try. There are people from all over the country that compete in it. Mind you I am not one of those, I am too much of a fatass, and I look bad in spandex.

    That's an easy one to do. Heck, that is only a little over two gallons of gas on my bike. Or exactly two if I take it easy.

    Took my piercing out when I met with my SEAL mentor today. Only my gay online friends know I have it.
