As a card carring USMS swimmer for the past 4 years I am proud to say that I also carry the card for USATriathlon. :D
I have swam my entire life and I need to do something more than back and forth; up and down the lane. I find swim meets to be extremly boring and a good waste of a taper.
Triathlons, well, they Rock!
Anyone else out there want to stand up with me? Or am I to be forever banned from this site, never to return again untill my tires go flat and both my knees are surgically altered.

"it just seems that there are far more in the "tri world".
Posers luuuv equipment so combining bikes and suits is killer! Guaranteed those legs are shaved and shining!
A triathlon is a race of all posers. The worst one wins. Triathletes are typically born late after each individual sport passed them by. It's an attempt to claim lost glory.
I apologize; I'm just laughing at myself. I'm lower than a triathlete. I run, cycle, and swim but I don't officially compete. My heart is with the triathlete but I've never had good enough recovery time to be great at any individual sport let alone three together. I'm relegated to being the poser of a poser. I even buy my cycling clothes from tri stores.
