It’s a very sad story about a guy who really was making the most of his opportunities. :slightly_frowning_face:

They really dont know much about ITU do they, the chats on LCB are borderline LIONel love in at times.

Love it when that happens. There was one on twitter a while back and someone replied to someone saying they didnt know what they were talking about and should read this book, and the person replied, Im the author of that book, and they were

Nice thread on Slowtwitch at the moment claiming budgie smugglers are 7 seconds per 100m faster than jammers.

I feel like 1st April has come early.

These pricks are what I dislike most about all endurance sports. Be more Peter Reid. Win three Ironman WCs then disappear to become a bush pilot not to be seen again for a decade. No one cares if you are #6 in cross triathlon nor do I GAF if you’ve unicycled to work naked every day for a decade. In Reykjavík.

We know nothing about most of the pharaohs of ancient Egypt - do you think your Strava KOM is going to echo into eternity? Egotistical tw@ts the lot of them.

This is why I’m not on Twatter/Insta/FB, the comments highlight the worst of us. Unfettered access would drive me down into the pit of despair.

Thanks for sharing :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

But I agree, boasting about being 6th in an Age Group of a minority amateur sport isnt going to get you a statue
