I'm getting the picture, Aqua, GoodSmith, et al
Your repressed 'Tri-Envy' (ref. S. Freud - 'Electra' complex for more discussion on repressed latent desires and passive aggressive tendencies) stems from being overweight, doesn't it. Come on. Fess up. We'll still love ya.
Well, it is harder to pound the pavement with muffin tops dangling. And the 8"X4" triangle, granny bike seats kind of make you stand out in the bike portion of a tri. All tradeark "one dimensional" swimmer signals. The picture is definitely coming into focus.
Stay strong swimmies. We will love you even if you can't engage in events that involve friction, gravity and sustaining your own full body weight.
By the way, lighten up!! ;-)
tri, tri, tri again

Had to read the original post again... in Emily Litella fashion (old timers may remember the SNL skits where she offers editorial replies based on initial misunderstandings... "busting schoolchildren" etc.), I glossed over until the word "bubbly" and had hopes of a nice champagne-fest in Colorado, which of course I'd attend even though I'm not a triathlete (but I did an aquathlon once...might that make me an "aquathlete"?). ;)
But now to my disappointment, it only refers to the host's purported personality and even that has been called into question. Sigh!
