The last time I checked, a person was entitled to his/her "IMHO". But I guess that isn't so around here. Have fun with your repressive little world that have here kids. Typical Liberal thinking. If you don't like something, bash it into the ground.

Obviously it is if you're posting in this thread.

What are you posting in this forum for anyway? You obviously have no interest in triathlon. And you are desecrating a thread about the death of a triathlon competitor.
Is that what you fought for? The right to be a complete, antisocial ass? If so, you have succeeded. WooHoo for you.

That must code for "you're absolutely correct" since you're still finding it worthwhile to respond to every post in here. What a champ!

I'd guess that shorter distance races are more likely to attract beginners doing their first race ever. Some people are very unprepared for the swim portion and get bad advice ("You don't have to know how to swim well - your wetsuit will let you float through the swim leg!").

I'd much rather die at 68 cycling, swimming, or running, than die at 88 after 15 years in a total care facility.
