Just for kicks I compiled some stats. I would be interested to see what others did. My biggest take away is that I had no idea I spent so much on race entry fees.
30 races
$1027.80 in entry fees (ouch), plus another $122.00 in license costs (USAT, USCF, USATF and USCAA)
Most expensive: Timberman $145.00, Good deal.
Cheapest: 3 were free, (one comped entry to a tri, $55.00 value, two my company paid for)
12 run only
1 snow shoe
2 duathlons
8 triathlons
7 bike only
320 run miles raced
418 bike miles raced
7500 swim meters raced

"When I first had the opportunity to compete in triathlon, it was the chicks and their skimpy race clothing that drew me in. Everyone was so welcoming and the lifestyle so obviously narcissistic. I fed off of that vain energy. To me it is what the sport is all about."
