YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN …

... you meant to get that "for sale" advt in today's E News but ...

... you wear the equivalent of a small lap top computer on your wrist, so you know among other things, where you are, how long it took to get there and how far it is from A to B.

... when your wine rack is full of empty bidon bottles



Safe Training,

Cheers,

Robyn
