My Stampede Triathlon teammates and I raced in suits that became
thongs after only a few minutes of running. We hated it.
Uncomfortable...embarrassing. We'll be wearing something else this next
season.

Tri-harder.

you're supposed to try a sports drink or bar before a race...the same is
true with a tri-suit. I was so taken with my last minute purchase of a
DeSoto 2 piece tri-suit that I raced in it without trying it first... that
was a mistake...although my husband has some very interesting bike shots of
me.

For the record, I did try to wedge the suit from my back side for about 30
miles on the bike. Then, I just figured I was wasting more energy fixing
my suit than racing, so I just let the suit go where the suit might. In
reality, it wasn't really uncomfortable. But, I got quite a *** cheek
burn.
