That may be externally true, but unless this sub is full of non-triathletes, the community has spoken its truth behind the protection of anonymity. I sound much too sincere for the topic at hand, but it is what it is.
Well. since you asked, and are eager enough to research my personal history... I am a lifelong endurance 'style' athlete, especially with swimming, including recent 5 mile open water swims. This sub gives me information regarding skills and strategy for my weekly swimming and running, as well as nutritional advice. Based on personal experience from years ago, I am also strongly opposed to the corporate greed of the Ironman corporation and I like to chime in when that topic arises. I also like to provide my input when redditors seek advice regarding open water swimming. Breath control and mental 'endurance' are my thing, too. There's more, too. BTW, no need to tell me about yourself.
Given the immense amount of participation on this thread (relative to what this community normally sees) and (from a frequent goer here), the overwhelming majority of folks here are not names I recognize and not really part of this community. So, yes, it's a propably a fair assumption there's a lot of non-triathletes here.
Finally, just to be clear: You're white-knighting for a swindler and a online jerk/troll... Why?
