My new "obsession"

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...
