You know you are a triathlete when you:Whip it out and pee in the middle of the 9th fairway near your pull cart, with 20 or 30 people in eyesight, no one noticing anything because everyone you were watching them take their shot. And you get done and no one ever knew what happened and the grass is greener and thankful for you

Sounds like standard golf to me.
Got up at 5 am on a Saturday to do a long bike ride.

Sell your car to go to Kona. Did that.

No that’s a roadie. Trigeeks go for a run afterwards. 
— finally realize after three years that your Timex Ironman watch also “just tells time”.

Someone ask you your age and you say 40-44.

Pick the hotel for your vacation or business trip based on if the pool is big enough to do laps more than 5 strokes in length.
…pee in your wetsuit.
Leave too late for a 120 mile ride. End up doing 7x2mile laps at the end to finish the distance on a well lit street. Get home at 10:30 pm. Go for a 4 mile run.

When you…
Go to the state park beach with your family, interpret the swimming area buoys as “suggestions” and swim across the lake & back anyway. Then think about doing it again. (“Can’t even take a vacation without getting your workout in…”)
Are on the road at 6 am for a 100-miler, looking forward to the hour run afterward.
Look forward to an afternoon forecast of 94 degrees, because it’s the day of the 4-hour+ brick workout.
You wonder if rip currents are only for “wimps” to worry about.
You feel a bit guilty doing a 56/6 Sunday morning because you find yourself in the shower when you know the gang at Lake Placid is still on the bike.
When you frequently do races consisting of swimming, biking, and running in quick succession.
You know you are a triathlete when…an aid station at your last Ironman runs out of gatorade, you punch a volunteer and drink his nosebleed.
ST is slowly turning into TNO.
45-49 :o)

Got up at 6 am, climbed 15,000 feet, 90 miles, ate a bunch,
then took a nap
Thats a roadie
Type email and eat dinner at the table in the aero position just to practice.
Start a 4 hour workout at 8:00pm because it was the only time you could fit it in your hectic day.
