I'm not great with the old weights & measures but as far as I can tell I come in at a haircut under 5' 5" and 114(race weight) to 119(ski weight), so there's another body type!

As far as I can tell that's about 18-19% body fat but at race weight it's often quite sinky in the pool and cold a lot of the time..

Thank god for neoprene.

6'1 - 160 lbs
Raced Cabo at 155 lbs but after being injured and off for 3 months I don't see myself losing those last 5 lbs again this year.

My first tri I was 6' 210. Now I am still 6' but at 184, and would like to be 175. Now I run an easy 7:30 pace on my runs, on the bike I climb better, swimming has been a little more endurance but just a little faster. Despite best intentions I did lose some power when I lost my guns -- but I'll take the tradeoff in better health and faster times.

Wow, all of you are pretty lean. No idea of my BF% but I'm the shortest so far at 5'3" and 153 lbs. 31 years old.

You can thank 10+ years of body building for all that extra weight.

I'll add another female data point. I'm 5'2"... I don't know what I weigh (don't have a scale), but here's a pic to give the general gist. Pretty certain though that I'm not as lean as blackthugcat. ;)

5'6" and 130 pounds. I seem to hold true at that 130 mark without any real effort to micro-analyze my intake.

Ugh, I'm freezing outside now that it's in the 40s at night. Am debating a swimskin in the pool. I am also thankful for neoprene.

I'm a bit under 5'6" and 112-ish presently. During race season I am usually 106-110 somewhere. I don't weigh myself that often, never had my body fat actually measured. I have a pretty slight build (many years of ballet.)

Less is more for me. My best running was when I dipped under 170lbs training for a marathon.

If someone made it my job to be a triathlete (which would be foolish) I would try to hit 160

Usually I am I 175 though.

I swim in an outdoor pool all year around and I love my aquaskins!! I'm rarely seen without one through winter and unless it levels out at 20 Celsius or above I'll have one on for squad sessions when we're in the water for 1.5 hours.

I might be an Ironman but I'm a bit of a wussy wimp when it comes to cold water :-)

I love those 2 weeks in the middle of the Canadian summer when I don't have to wear long sleeve shirts and long underwear to keep from freezing to death... ;)
