YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN...

... the phrase "This set with fins" is better than hearing "You just won $1000"
... you've tried at least a million moisturizers, body sprays, and "swimmer's shampoos" and still nothing works
... you dont care when you hug a sweaty guy or girl

Train safe
Cheers
Robyn
