  1. WOW AMAZING I believe you're the only person ever to post really good advice on rec sport triathlon.

    WELL DONE

    Would it be possible for you to post a summary of you sporting background on RST ? The reason I ask
    is that I'm sure it would make interesting reading.

    Cheers

  2. I disagree, imposter. Quit copying me.

  3. ....really nice to see that you were inspired with my postings, thanks. I like to try to inspire and
    make people feel good about sport. Infact, I like to encourage people of all ages and abilities to
    take part in sport.

    I did not quite expect a pure 'attention thread' on myself though,...but as you may be interested,
    here is a short summary as to my background:

    I am 100% British but currently live in France, working as a graphic designer and studying to
    eventually become a professional web designer with the aim of setting up a small business. I'm 30
    yrs old, single.

    Main Sporting results:

    Triathlon: 1993 - Winner of five International competitions at Junior level. 1994 - British
    National 21-24 Age Group Champion - Sprint Distance. 1995 - British National 21-24 Age Group
    Champion - Olympic Distance. 1996 - Elite Tri Licence - International La Grande Motte 3rd - Roanne
    Int. Tri 1st.

    Cross Country Skiing 1995 - British National Champion for 30km skating technique. 1996 - Holder of
    International 'FIS' Cross-Country Racing Licence.

    Alpine Skiing:
    1989: Holder of International 'FIS' Alpine downhill ski licence. Won many local ski races. It was
    here that I got into 'fitness', because part of the skiing programme is to be fit, eg: biking,
    running , some swimming, rollerskating, ...

    Cycling:
    1990: Commenced cycling as a main sport in April . Made excellent progress in local French races,
    advancing rapidly to National Level. Best result: 8th in the international Time Trial of the
    Trophée d'Or (won by J. Longo),

    1991: Granted French Elite licence at the beginning of the season. Competed in 8 'UCI International
    Calendar' Events including the Giro d'Italia and the World Cup. Best Results at UCI level:
    5th, 19th and 22nd. Occasional member of the Nürnberg Team and a Japanese Team as BCF (
    British Cycle Federation) made it difficult for me to join them.

    1992: Turned professional riding for Team Mazza of Switzerland and participated in World Cups in New
    Zealand, Australia and Europe. Still no encouragement from the British Cycle Federation...

    1993: Difficulties in being recognised as potential for British cycle team by BCF, so with no help I
    decide to concentrate on academics.

    1994: I win 8 road races and place 11 times on the podium in Europe, even with Jeannie Longo. This
    was by far my best ever season, yet still ignored with my results for British Team selection.
    They made it almost impossible for me to take part in their national road race.

    1995: no financial aid, but wanting to continue bike racing. No chance: however good I try to prove
    I am, I'll never get selected! So I am about to quit sport completely - no race results, no
    job, no money...no moral.

    1996: I'm back in sport. This time in triathlon, where I started out. Main aim now is to simply
    enjoy the sport for what it is.

    I've always trained myself.

    So there you go! Hope this is not too long and thanks once again for your interest;

    Rebecca

    considerate. Will you marry me?

    Ecce, you're gay, remember? Both the Father and I have photos, so a little

    ignored by the BCF is one thing, but becoming a triathlete is as far as a human can possibly sink.

    Come to rec.running, Becky. I will induct you into the ways of a real sport. And I have chums in
    Sports Scotland, so go to Stirling Uni (nice 50m pool) and I will see you're on the appropriate
    lists for funding. My price will not be *too* high :-)

    Roger.

    Yeahr - Ok being a triathlete means (obviously) I'm gay - lycra panties, shaved legs, comparing body
    bits, fake tan etc etc etc. BUT "Dr Steven Walker" is not me.

    Father Guido, Steven walker et al are not "ecce".

    By *pure genius* I managed to initiate someone to troll for me - without even asking. And it gets
    better - That person now posts under an "ecce" email address.

    So, I get to do normal stuff, whilst someone I have never even spoken to trolls on my behalf -
    fantastic what more could a lazy troll want.

  7. Am I not me?

    Nice Smeagol, we loves hobbitses. Master is kind to us. No, no, no. Liar, liar, liar.
