I agree. This thread has become toxic and ridiculous. I started doing triathlons because I thought the community was supportive, but i'm hoping the hate in this thread is limited to a small subset of the overall triathlon community. His website clearly sets the rules in which he will attempt this PERSONAL CHALLENGE (not associated with Ironman or any other organization).
how about you attempt to meet in the middle. This is a personal challenge one that is, frankly, astounding. He sets the rules. I am good with that. Im rooting hard for him. It is unfortunate that in order to commercialize this effort (I mean, he does have bills to pay) he has to trade off the Ironman currency when he is, in fact, not doing an Ironman. Can you meet me there?
