When is enough enough? I have never seen a logo so overworn in my life as the mdot logo this week in Kona. Everybody on Alii Dr has at least 2 mdots somewhere on their clothes and/or body. I'm rebelling and I'm not going to wear a single mdot or ironman logo this whole week. Of course as soon as I get home I'll put on my ironman polo shirt and my mdot sticker on the car but until then...

If you really want to rebel, why don't you just drop out of the race.
Otherwise, quit complaining. You chose to do the MDot race. And others have trained their butts off so they can where the MDot logo.

Why don't you quit crying and get out of triathlon and go do something more challenging like learn how to fly an F/A-18 Hornet or something like that?

I seriously doubt Bones is even racing.
If you had worked your arse off to get there something like that wouldn't bother you.

Woooo killer, I was just being a little sarcastic. Must have hit a chord.
You really shouldn't take yourself so seriously. It's just a sport.

I can relate to that! While a have M-dot banner at my shop, going to the races sometimes is overwhelming to me, too! Suffer through! ;-)

Wayne: I say hurl, if you spew chunks and she comes back, shes yours...if you spew chunks and she leaves, then it was never meant to be...

It does get a little redundant after a while at any IM branded race - you begin to wonder if some of these guys have anything else going on in life.. by the end of the week my prickish personality wants to go buy a carton of smokes, get tanked, and watch nascar.

What IM needs to do next... is create the M-DOT costume. wearing big foam M on their bodys and have the entire head encased in a foam shell for the dot... Halloween is coming up....

Are those whacky Saucony people there with the colored mohawks and saucony & IM logos all over? Kind of an older couple, frightening for small children.

Hey...those two are pretty cool actually. And are fantastic ambassadors for IM, thus the sponsorships they have had from Saucony and Powerbar (I think). But no, those two were not able to come out this year.

Too bad they didn't make it. They are part of the IM whackiness I used to love.

I know exactly what you are saying! I have had it with Lambeau Field. If I see ONE MORE Green Bay Packer logo, I'm going to hurl! ;-)

" 2 mdots somewhere on their clothes and/or body"
Two Mdot tatoos would seem like a bit of screaming out loud "I need something else in my life".

Alright, I have never heard of nor seen the crazy Saucony old folks with the mohawks and tatoos until............this afternoon at the Chicago Marathon Expo! How crazy is that?! So unless there is more than one couple like this, they're not in Kona.

At first I got annoyed with this too, BUT You gotta take a step back and realize that you have 2,000 people who have come from all over the world. In their own area, they are very different from almost everyone else because they do Ironman. After the race you will all go your seperate ways and will have to deal with the people back home who are not accepting of your lifestyle (yell at you while you run, nearly hit you with their cars...etc, etc) So why not be happy that you have so many cool people together in the same place and just enjoy things.
