For the Ladies
I have been in a four month debacle with getting the AzTriClub clothing line up and running. Vendors closing doors and not telling anyone their orders will not be processed. Vendors lying about not recieving our orders when in fact they did and just sat on them. I might as well be working on the 2007 line instead of 2006.
One of the great things about our club, is that we encourage Clydesdales and Athena's to join us for training in a non-elitest atmosphere . When it comes down to it there is nothing different between a newbie who wears medium and a newbie who wears XXL or size 18 except for the way they are precieved by the group. We have no preception. We are preceptionless. Probably because the majority of us work in the fitness/health industry and/or have lost tremendous amounts of weight through the sport of triathlon.
Its been really hard to find a clothing distributor that would even send a clothing sample packet that had a large womens set or an XL mens set, let alone anything bigger. So I was happy to see that Team Estrogren is a line of women's clothing that cater to size XS-4X. The nice thing is that their clothing actually has some great looking products and not basic, bold color stuff. It has some of the coolest womens bike jerseys I have ever seen.
Do some online window shopping today gals, its Tuesday, you deserve it. Tell your husbands and boyfriends that I said it was okay to buy something snazzy for yourself.

So, what have you found for us "husky" boys??? ;) We aren't all built like a superhero (bold, kahuna, etc.)...
I love team estrogen stuff...they send me e-mails with sales and stuff every week...love it!!
Thanks for the support for us larger women, Comm!! There's nothing like new training duds to lend a little motivation!
Some of the tri-stores and running stores have MICROSCOPIC sizes. Like the "medium" is sized for someone about 5'4" and 98 pounds. Drives me nuts, and I think it helps contribute to some whacked-out perceptions of what is supposedly "average"!!
I was just trying to think, when was the last time I read the word "snazzy".
What a great way to bring everyone to the sport, CMS.
Thanks Comm, I must say that Tri-Bloggers and Runner-Bloggers have been a great source of knowledge and encouragement to the "accidental" Triathlete in me. :)
The day that this sport becomes a sport where we're judged on size and place more than it is about being the best triathlete that you can indvidually be is the last day that I do this sport. I love triathlons for that very reason.
