Anyone else find it a bit odd that the cover of the May/June issue shows "swimmers" wearing flotation vests?

  • I think the photo is actually USMS' not-so-subtle ploy to get more tris to join our ranks. After all, look at all the gear those people are wearing, a tri would feel right at home. Alas, if only they were wearing unitards and heart rate monitors would the ploy be truly effective. A slight diversion but something I've been pondering. A tri that swims around the same times as our team always wears his man bikini. Why would you wear the full bikini if you are doing laps? He also circle swims backwards, maybe he's Canadian.
