Lance Armstrong quote
I wonder what he thinks it will be replaced with?? I Think the type of people triathletes and [...]

One of the things I was nervous about when competing in my first triathlon was what outfit to race in. On TV most women wore bathers – either one piece or two piece, the men wore what looked like speedos with a crop singlet. The thought of exposing that much skin in an event I [...]

Triathlete’s tend to be people who love to overcome obstacles who love to defy what [...]
