You Ran 26.2 miles. WOW!
I only run that after I swim 2.4 miles and bike 112
My favorite as illustrated months ago by Flatman but I could not find on the website says, "You've run a marathon. How Cute. 140.6"
Go to trimyapparel for dozens more options.
I am working on my missing archives. Hope to have it resolved soon.

OMG, those are freaking awesome!! Thanks!!
hee.
Whereas I think this shirt is amusing in some ways, I do think it a bit pretentious in others.
I can't help but reflect on one of your earlier posts prior to becoming an Ironman when you bumped into a woman at Tribe who was unusually humble about also earning the right to be called an Ironman, and how that affected you. Take a moment to reflect back on that day.
Is this really the message you want to convey to those who feel crossing the finish of a marathon may be just as much of an achievement as what you've just endured?
I've always viewed you through your writing as someone who is shaped through quiet strength. Hopefully you choose not to endorse this shirt and its mantra, for it'd be a shame to those who see it, and even more so for an Ironman to wear it.
Thanks for that reminder Mike. Its a snarky thing, as I titled the post. Snarky means irriatable or iritatiing.
The snarkiest I have gotten so far, if thats possibly a word is a shirt given to me for my birthday that said- I see crazy people- 2.4~ 112~ 26.2
But maybe I am getting a bit over involved in the ironman distance... since Florida I have thrown away all my 5k and 10k race shirts and I got that big ass tattoo.
:)
Bah! I guess I should have looked up the word prior to my rant!!!
Snarky indeed!!!!!
Oh, those are so wrong... :-)
I wear a shirt just like it. Except it has something to do with eating a large pan pizza, and cup size.
I like the "Death before DNF" personally...
but I don't even wear my post-race stuff. Just my swim caps in workouts....
