Apparently compression socks, calf guards, etc are being banned at Ironman Hawaii this year. Oh those poor triathletes, how ever are they going to survive?!?!

What about man-bras?
triathletes do seem to be gear junkies for sure.
But they still have their superhero costumes and 17 sport bottles.

I'm just curious why they would ban them? Its not like they're something only sponsored athletes can get- a nice pair only costs $40-$50. Which sounds like a lot, but it is very little compared to the cost of the other gear they're buying.

Or a breathe right strip, or arm warmers, or a hat, or sunglasses, or custom made shoes...
The insecurity here is amazing.
Nice troll work on this thread.
no
runners would rather find out the exact design of shoes the pros are wearing....and demand a pair for themselves....even if said shoes have pictures of said professional runner's children on them....
