This post includes a video clip of triathletes from the Oakland Triathlon.  I volunteered as a "course marshal" over Labor Day weekend and added to my free t-shirt collection.  Note: I didn't skip my workouts over the weekend. I took an body-weight exercise class on Friday and completed a 3 mile run/walk on Saturday.
