My favorite new t-shirt

I LOVE this shirt!

My favorite part - the run mileage.  Does this mean we did an ultra-marathon since our distance was over 26.2?

  • That's a cool finisher's shirt! You earned it!
  • How about this one from IMLP last year? Look closely



     

    That CDA shirt is great BTW!

  • No way! Is that the official shirt, Cary???

  • OMG- no way!!! That's too funny!

    FWIW- the Finisher Ts at IMWI in '08 were this aweful bright yellow- ick! The volunteer shirts however were really pretty!
  • That was totally real - they had it on "sale" for $15 with a sign underneath saying "That's one really long swim". It's wasn't the finish line shirt.

  • FYI, many, many small changes this year, now that WTC owns the show. One of them was tech-t's as finishers shirts, nice change.

  •  Yeah, if the word hasn't gotten out on the T Tech finisher shirts, those who had the good sense (or luck) to get a smaller rather than a larger size could walk around the next AM showing off their exceptional lean post race physiques, thanks to the form-fitting qualities of the fabric. And the shimmer of those threads, not at all like dull cotton.

    Hadn't noticed the 26.21 distance, but it's there on mine, too - 

  • In CdA a couple of years ago the kids shirts had the CdA Logo and half IM distances rather than full IM distances. I saw them when they were being pulled out the box and made some funny comment. Within 5 minutes they were marked down to $5. Cheapest IM gift for my kids yet!

    Kids are still wearing the t-shirts.
  • At ToC this year, the queen stage was initially supposed to go from Pasadena to Big Bear. They changed it to go from Palmdale to Big Bear instead.
    Well, obviously some local company had ordered/made t-shirts with "Pasadena" written on them, before the stage change. They were still selling them in Big Bear, and I saw a bunch of people wearing them. LOL

    I'm VERY glad it's not a 140.6 mile swim. I definitely would NOT sign up then, even with a wetsuit!

    I love my finisher shirts, even though I've always got an XL, when I should have been getting a L.
  • I remember you pointing out those misprints to Kitima and I at Big Bear. Pretty funny.

    I have to say, the T-Shirts at Eagleman this year were actually quite nice. Eman has kinda a history of having the ugliest T shirts ever (really- if there was an Ugly T contest I'm pretty sure they would win). But this year they were nice material (UnderArmour), nice color, and a nice simple design (the eagle was much smaller than usual). I wonder if WTC had something to do with it. I just assumed Vigo finally realized he didn't know how to design a T and offloaded that task to someone else!
  • Yeah Nemo - much better this year - those powder blue ones from eman last year were so unmanly - i don't think i ever wore it out of the house.
  • Love this post, Carly! I agree, great shirts! They definitely fit snug for their size. I hadn't noticed the swim distance...too funny!
