Saw this posted somewhere and thought it was cute. Not all of them apply to me, but plenty of them do.

You know you're a triathlete when:

• You have a lifetime supply of water bottles, safety pins, and t-shirts
• You have trouble keeping lunch under 2000 calories
• You usually wake up at 4:00 in the morning but don't get to work until way after 9:00
• You have a $4000 bike strapped on top of your $2000 car
• You're always wet .... sweat, pool, lake, sea water, shower, bath, or rain
• Your car has at least one energy bar wrapper and water bottle on the floor
• You depart in the morning with swim bag, bike, and running shoes in case you can get away at lunch for a workout
• You take triathlon junkets instead of vacations
• Your kitchen cupboards are organized into "protein", "carbs" and "etc"
• You bring bottled water to a party so that you're properly hydrated for the next morning's long run
• Everyone else at the party also brought their own bottled water because you don't have a social life outside of triathlon. Oh yeah, and they all showed up by 7pm and left by 10pm.
• You mention a race and somebody responds "running or biking" and you are again forced to explain...
• You wear your bathing suit under your work clothes to make a fast transition from work to swim on your lunch hour
• You name your two new puppies Kona and Hawi
• Your spouse wants dinner out and a movie, so you agree, but fall asleep during the previews
• Somebody hands you a cup of water and you have to restrain yourself from pouring it over your head
• You feel like you took the day off because all you did was swim 3000 yards
• Cars pass you on the road when you're driving and you either drop back to get out of draft zone or speed up to attack!
• Your bed-time reading on your night stand consists of a pile of: DeSoto catalogs; InsideTri; Triathlete, VeloNews, USMA Swim, etc
• When asked how old you are, you answer 25-29
• Your training is more limited by available time then how far you can run
• Nobody believes you when you say 'Never again'
• You need a picture for a job application and you only have race pictures.
• You use running T-shirts to clean your bike
• You think there are only two seasons during the year, racing and off
• You clean your bike more often than your car
• You tell your co-workers that you are going to "do a long brick" on saturday and just expect that they know what you are talking about
• You are convinced that if you rest more than one day, your muscles will atrophy, your ultra-fit body will turn into a pile of goo and everyone in your age group will beat you
