"You don't PLAY triathlon.  You play soccer; it's fun.  You play baseball.  Triathlon is work that can leave you crumpled in a heap, puking by the roadside.  It's the physical brutality of climbing Mt Everest without the great view from the top of the world.  What kind of person keeps coming back for more of that?" - Chris McCormack
