I must have a death wish
Because according to the LA Times (via the Chicago Tribune), triathlons are twice as deadly as marathons.
This is, of course, relative. 14 triathletes died during races in a 2 year study. 13 of them died during the swim, although the author of this "article" treats that as an anecdotal fact rather than the very crux of the matter. I guess "Open water swimming in huge crowds can be deadly" was too obvious and uninteresting a headline.
Yep, training for another one (maybe two) tri's this summer. And a century bike ride. Just as soon as I get over this flu.
