Ok, so I’m no longer fronting a triathlon club, so Naomi and I have decided to create a non-geek endurance athlete club that is to follow STRICT rules:
Not Allowed:
1) Compression socks: Never. Ok.. I own a pair.. I love them.. but seriously… dorky.
2) 140.1, 26.2, 13.1,TRI, MDOT etc… stickers, trailer hitches, license plate holders
3) Sleeveless bike jerseys
4) at a social gathering of non-athletes, mention of race splits, training volume, sports nutrition, training techniques, your last workout, equipment, etc..
5) Bragging about the number of times you’ve been to Kona or done the Boston marathon
6) m-DOT tatoos (yes, I now a bunch of you have em… I’m not a fan… sue me)
7) drinking from a water bottle while at the dinner table
wearing of race shirts. they are for cleaning your bike chain, mkay?
9) add your own here…
Membership is free. No refunds.
Anyone that still has reflectors on their bike.
Anyone that does a training ride in their Zipps.
Anyone with a granny gear on their bike.
Sh*t… this give me a day and I will have lots more!
haha!!
Love it
LOL to all of the above!!! Must give credit to Sergio…he planted the wise seed for this club!
Carson…let’s have that extended list!
My additions:
* telling people your training schedule like they care
* acting as though this sport is the “hardest” thing on earth to do. Umm, people, how about war, cancer, surviving through terrorism, etc, etc, etc…
Oh!
* Bragging about your years of experience in the sport and how much you know; how much people should listen to your opinion
* having an email with “tri”-something in it. Doh! That’s me! lol!;-)
P.S. This is all ‘tongue and cheek’, people. Don’t get your compression socks in a knot…haha!
HaHaHa!!!!!!
If I knot my compression socks and tie dye them – can I still wear them to the club?
bummer greg, i guess you can’t be a part of your own tri club according to this incriminating photo
