  1. i am entering my very first triathalon ever this winter, and i need
    some advice on clothing. the swimming part i have down, same for
    cycling, but i can't seem to find anything that works for these as well
    as running. i need more support on the top, and basic swimsuits just
    dont work for a multitide of reasons. does anyone have suggestions for
    what to wear for the whole race? running has always been my difficulty,
    usually because of the outfit. any suggestions?

  2. Louis Garneau and DeSoto Sports are two excellent choices when it comes
    to triathlon specific clothing. These are two of our lines that we sell
    quite a bit of and have very positive feedback, esp from women. Right
    now, I have the clothing on sale so this would be excellent time to
    give it a try.

    Good Luck,
    Diane

  3. You might try a one piece tri-suit with or without sleeves. It's really
    hard to give advice without knowing what the real problem is. Don't be
    embarrassed to describe hear, at one time or another we've all been
    there, seen it, done it, or watched someone else who has.

    So, whats the problem with basic swimsuits? Too tight? Too Small? Don't
    hold you firm enough? Straps cut ?

  4. Hello, My name is Emilio De Soto. Years ago we invented the Tri
    Short, a short you can swim, bike and run in all changing. Combine
    that with one of our great women's tops that are supportive,
    quick-drying and very breathable, and you have a great outfit for your
    entire race.

    Right now we are having a big sale on our website with 40% off on just
    about all garments.

  5. What's triathalon? :-)

    I dunno. But whatever it is, I'll bet it's draft-legal.

    ok, shoot me! english is not my first language.

    how's this: triathilon..i mean tryathlon...er...i mean triathlon.
    OK?

    anyway, i was just looking for some advice on what to wear--hopefully
    from other women, but i'll take it from anyone. I've tried a one-piece,
    but the wedge factor is lethal on the bike, and the bounce factor is
    torture when running. Sooooo...I an curious about a one-piece with a
    built in bra and short shorts to keep things under control.

    Sorry; I normally don't correct spelling in posts, but it's a pet peeve
    of mine how so many triathletes believe that they are actually
    triathaletes! :-)

    (Plus, the correct spelling is in the newsgroup header.)

    Can't help you there, as I don't--and hopefully will never!--have those
    problems.

  9. ok harlold, i'll make a concerted effort to learn the correct
    spelling--and commit it to muscle memory so that typing it is
    automatic--before my first triathlon comes around in a few months.

    glad to hear you have not suffered these wardrobe malfunctions...

    With a name as stupid as Harold, how can you expect anyone to take it
    seriously enough to spell it correctly. GMAB, dude, is your world so
    limited to biking that you need to find these isolated pockets to laugh
    at someone else? What's the last book you read? Can you solve a
    differential equation? Or are you just one of those guys who will
    wither into old age with the comfort of knowing you can do one thing
    well enough to make fun of others who venture into your stuffy pocket?
    Give this girl a f**king break, a**hole!!

    Err, Gloria, did you consider the possibility that the misspelling of
    Harold's name was on purpose for comic effect? And well done at that
    (IMO).

    That's what I figured. If not, it was a funny spot for the typo to fall.

    Hmmm...

    Just read back through the thread. Saw lots of humor, some people picking
    on each other in a good-natured way, even the word "sorry" was used. The
    only truly mean spirited, asenine post I saw was, well, yours. Actually
    both of them. So, what clever name will you call me?
