This topic always stirs up the pot. I'm one of the people that haven't been mentioned, I'm 6'2" and about 205lbs. (at my leanest) and about 9% body fat and compete in my AG (never Clydes). I often place in my AG too. My last race I was 1st in my AG and 7th OA. Now, should the skinny, super fast people in my AG be mad that I didn't race as a Clydes? Because some would certainly be angry if I did race as a Clydes and placed because I am barely over the weight limit. But really who cares? Those people would bitch about anything to make themselves feel better.

Why do people get angry when there is an athlete just over the weight limit and they place in that class? They didn't make the rules.

I got into triathlon to release some of my competitive energy, so I go out to beat myself. If I place, then great, if not then then oh well. If your someone that will never place in your AG but bitches at someone that places in Clydes/Athena, then train harder so you can place too. If your that jealous then get fatter and compete as a Clydes/Athena.
