Why I am a little upset about no triathlons this year.
 
This year I was all prepared, my training was on point. My job and family life was in balance and I had real desire to make a difference this year racing not only for myself but for my charity and cause. I had just received my new wetuist and trisuit. My trisuit I had sublimated by Alibaba.com with my charity sponsor Black Lives Matter logo on the front and back of the suit. Plus, I had BLM stickers on the top tube of my bike, ready to roll. I was so excited this year to make a difference and spread the awareness of this worthwhile cause. I had receive many donations and I was well on my way to make difference. Of course, I was going to also take a knee during the national anthem before the start of the race too but it be so much more fulfilling to have the BLM charity as my sponsor on my suit. But alas, I have to wait until next year. Anyone else, feeling the same? I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks,

It's not satire. I'm being honest.

~50 posts over the course of 4 years is not what one would consider 'frequent'

So because I only posted 50 times in 4 years, so 12.4 times a year, then I am not good enough to post something? Sorry I am not a super user like you, I actually work for a living.

I'm not criticizing your post, only your definition of 'frequent'. Keep fighting the good fight, brother.

"Terryh" kinda has you on this one. 12,700 posts is A LOT and might skew your perspective.

Cue the popcorn...

Post your donation link so we can make you feel a bit better. I'm sure charities are still taking $ raised for events that have been cancelled. Not having races doesn't stop most of us from wearing our trisuits around town.

I was actually wondering if and when the Covid cases skyrocket after all of the riot co-mingling will the media blame and shame the BLM peaceful protestors/insane looters or will they blame Trump? Serious question.

Or its all going in in an outdoor environment and case trajectory stays similar. It this happens, it provides some data that concentrated groups outdoors is OK. If it goes up big time roughly 7 days from today (protests started 10+ days ago and there were large outdoor crowds at Memorial day too), then it confirms distancing to be useful outdoors. let's first see what happens to the trajectory.

Why would you choose to disrespect the flag and country by taking a knee?

haha Where I am from that would be sarcasm. It's how we cope with having so many countrymen burning down this country and taking us down with them.

You are a fucking asshole and not even very good at being that.

Yeah, no popcorn needed here, folks. Locking and moving on.
