OMG! For a short time, I was hoping this was a joke. I already boycott Competitor events--thanks for yet another reason.

On my OW swims, had any of the boats had bands, I'd either try to swim underwater (which wouldn't last long--my underwater drills have never been too great) or veer WAY off course. I don't do tri's--just stand-alone swims and stand-alone runs and sometimes swim/run events. Please, Competitor, don't give other swim organizers any ideas!

The next sport to be corrupted is the triathlon. Competitor Group has just launched a tri series. What great fun that will be! A sample of their sales pitch:

- Course perks like Swim Buddies to help you through the swim leg

- Individualized Bike Racks so you don’t have to fight for a spot in transition

- Bands throughout the Course including a Band on a Boat for the swim

- a Band a Mile on the run
