... a friend of mine has just finished his first triathlon.... I have started to look at trainers (for actual running) and tri suits... what is wrong with me?
Please tell me this is a phase and it will pass.

I've already threatened to ban you for attempting to lead me astray with cheap Canyons or adding up what we've spent. Will I have to issue an official warning? :P0

I really shouldn't validate these sorts of attention seeking antics with comment. Suffice to say you are old enough to know it is wrong.

I heard on the radio last night someone assert that 80% of all deaths during triathlons were in the swim. And I'd guess that the run accounts for the rest.
Stick to cycling, you know it makes sense...0 -

The other 20% are due to their ex-buddies from cycling beating the living daylights out of them :twisted:ROAD < Scott Foil HMX Di2, Volagi Liscio Di2, Jamis Renegade Elite Di2, Cube Reaction Race > ROUGH0 -

Just buy a sports car and or pro level carbon bike and be done with it, its where you're headed. Why not just cut out the middle man oh and the inevitable injuries.Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.0 -

Where do people get these craazeee ideas? Beats me.
Embrace it. Tight speedos. Mirrored googles. Paddles. Rotator cuff injuries. Zipp wheels with dodgy hubs. Uncomfortable tri bars. Making a disposable race gilet out of a bin bag and duck tape. A riding position that looks like you're getting ready to meet Big Jim on your first Saturday night in prison. Wanting a disc wheel because it makes a whumpwhumpwhump noise. Being hated by cyclists. Lost toenails. Shin splints. Stress fractures. A watch with more GPS power than the average car. Never quite doing enough work on any one sport. Reading avidly crappy articles on how to improve your transition time. Or mid foot running techniques. Wearing a trisuit in public. M Dot tattoos.
It's like paradise, only better.
