Rant on Cheating

Ok what the heck is going on? All of a sudden the board is being innundated with posts on “the heck with the rules I’m drafting”, I need to take Drug x or suppliment Y. I just don’t get it, are you guys so desperate to hit some imaginary performance number that anything goes?

I thought Triathlon was about seeing how well you can make your body perform, not how well I can place while cheating.

I don’t care where I place as long as I have worked as hard as I can, it’s a statisfied feeling

EXACTLY!

Drugs, Chemicals, and Drafting are CHEATING. They are NOT in the spirit of Ironman. There are no “bad raps” on unnecessary “performance enhancers.”

Please don’t waste our time with the “how are drugs different than carbon wheels” argument…It’s not the same and you know it.

I with ya. Besides, I don’t think I’m smart enough to deal with monitoring one more thing. I have a hard enough time making sure I drink enough water.
