Gotta Love those Tri Athletes

Just had to share: Last nite went to a local lake that I swim in occassionally. Smaller lake, 730 yards from one end to the other (GPS is great). As I was getting ready to go, a local Tri-guy was finishing his swim. I noticed that he was wearing a wet suit. Water temperature was about 81 degrees! I say," isn't it a little warm for a wet suit?" (I would be smothering), he says "Well, there are a couple of cold patches out there!" (probably gets down all the way to 80 degrees for 30 seconds) LOL.

    "I was drafting behind someone and when someone was coming up on my left I picked up my pace using the wake of the swimmer in front of me to sling shot me past her and stay with the passing swimmer. I admit I did touch her feet a few times over the previous 100 yds. " Her reaction was out of line, however, drafting and touching the draftee's feet is a pretty agressive action. One must be prepared to take evasive steps for the reaction.
