Athlete favouritism

[Tri Girl]

I'm glad you're OK with it. I might feel snubbed, too- but in the end only you can truly appreciate your own accomplishments and be proud of you (although it IS nice to be recognized once in a while).
I know that WE are all proud of you and what you've accomplished!!

Thanks Tri-girl!!! (and my TE sisters and brothers) You really are the BEST!!

Eden- Yes, admitted he does have a different relationship with his two co-sponsored athletes. An I imagine he "brags" about them in order to perhaps acquire some other talented athletes. Ah, but does he realize that us age-groupers are his bread and butter? We, in fact are helping pay for those sponsored athletes.

He has a section on (in?) his website "At the Races" where he places results of his athletes..which I did point out was missing every one of my 2009 results, yet many of his other athletes (age-groupers like myself) accomplishments were listed. Perhaps it is sloppiness; maybe it has to do with his ego. Is he is trying to use psychological tactics to get me to try harder....who knows?

He's a good coach.. so I guess I'll have to put up with his idiosyncrasies.

And there is always karma. Yes, there is always karma.
