I've always considered doing marathons and ironman distance triathlons something that borders on being an obsession. When people ask me if I think they could do one, I usually say that it is more a question of obsession than ability : ) So... I ended up coming up with a design that I think expresses how one travels down the path from shorter races (5K, sprint tri) to eventually being hooked on marathons and iron distance triathlons. Found a very quick, easy way to put that on some t-shirts and merchandise, based on the simple premise that I think it is fun and I would want one! Here are links to the marathon and triathlon shops, respectively; and if there is anyone out there reading this that cares to provide feedback, that'd be great. To be sure, this is nothing that I expect to turn into much; but it was just fun to take an idea and really do something with it; instead of just talking about it : ) Maybe some day it will finance my 12 Step program to recover from being an endurance sports addict...

I have thought about alot, trying to come up with something that will fund my racing addiction. Base salary does not meet my needs for the amount of racing I want to do and I cant have a second job because I need to train to race. You know the delimna. I have so many quirky to motivating thoughts and phrases I could slap on a shirt, hoping it would sell and the money would go directly into my racing habit.
ReplyDeleteI love the slogan, brillant, honestly, your only marketing to athletes you have done each distance, which is a small crowd of people. I think your on to something here though. Again this is a brillant slogan, if you tweek it and make another one (while keeping this one as well), you can market it to a larger group of athletes
thanks, appreciate the feedback and encouragement! Good input...
