One thing I have learned... you CANNOT judge a TRIATHLETE by his/her cover.

Wear what you have to wear... and if the spectators don't like it... screw them... they just don't have to look. Or next time, they can get in spandex and do it with you.![]()

Denise, it took me puzzling over it and saying it out loud before I could figure out what "s word for bolt" meant!![]()
Seeing my shirt through SK's eyes (or anyone's here), I saw all the ways the fabric would catch the wind on the ride. That shifted my perspective considerably.
Run like a dachshund! Ride like a superhero! Swim like a three-legged cat!

Yep. Thy must be aerodynamic!!![]()
I have to admit when I saw the pic of you at PP the first thing that came to mind is "why is she wearing that big top? She's so thin she doesn't need to hide anything!"... So there you go!!!!![]()
It's all about ones perspective on themselves I suppose.
You guys look at me and see an Ironman, I look at myself and see the michelin man!!!![]()
I think it's all those years of Erica Whitty the school bully calling me the pillsbury dough boy and singing "pillsbury dough boy, whoa whoa whoa" that have scarred my brain!![]()
But as I age I have begun to embrace my inner stumpiness. I will never be a size 2, but with some work I'll be a bad *** strong size 10!![]()
Youse say da word, RM, and Erica's toast. I'm from Chi-ca-ga, an' I got a girl gang right here on TE that would travel to defend yer honor!
....................
oooh! oooh! I've got a better idea! Why not challenge Erica to join you in a friendly little competition we like to call...Ironman!

Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
It's too much for my tiny brain...
