After purchasing a pair of "Funky Trunks," wearing them to practice last Friday, and mentioning this in my blog, a few other bloggers (Tim and Patrick) thought "Funky Trunks Fridays" (FTF) would be a fun idea to get started. In addition, one of us received criticism from their AGers about being "too old" to wear funky trunks. What a challenge! Are masters swimmers really too old to wear Funky Trunks or do we look.......well, amazing?
Borrowing a bit from "Alice's Restaurant:"
"And can you, can you imagine fifty masters swimmers, I said
fifty walking in and wearing Funky Trunks on Friday and
jumping in. And friends they may think it's a movement."
Join us in the Funky Trunks Fridays Movement (the FTF) and wear your funkiest trunks (don't have to be Funky Trunk brand) to practice on Fridays, talk to your teammates, spread the movement. Sign on and let us know who's the funkiest and how your are making out. :bow:
Utah triple crown (24 miles openwaterpedia.com/index.php last summer with my funky trunks (pug with sunglasses and bow tie)I always appreciate it when you wear a bright suit for OW racing, Kurt. I remember the days when you had a hot pink suit with polka dots - when I was in shape, your suit acted as a guide to know who to draft off; when I was out of shape, it was just a blur and my dreams of gold were dashed again!
Keep it funky my friend.
