Why Tri?

Posted on

Ever want to do a triathlon?

Well team TKD – is setting forth with the Tri spirit! We are looking forward to our first Tri!! With great motivation coming from great sources, we will be crossing that finish line before long!! With our teams last Half Marathon each step brings us more rewards and nothing is better then running with friends and being noticed for our great gear! 

We love the comfort of the TRIX Gear! The shirts kept us warm pre race and were comfortable to move in. We are excited to be able to train in the shirts and they are even fun to wear on any sporty day or relaxing in as well!

Let us tell you more about TRIX ~

What do you get when you cross a triathlon obsessed husband with a graphic designer wife? Marriage met on middle ground and some pretty inspired tri lifestyle t-shirts. Frustrated by lack of fashion friendly triathlon inspired t-shirts during their seven plus years participating and spectating the team takes on the need and launches their online store October ’09.

Paul Duffy
owner/triathlete
United Kingdom

Paul Duffy has been participating in triathlons since 2002 but it wasn’t until his brain tumor in ‘05 that the sport became more meaningful to him.  Getting up to train day after day has come to symbolize good health and capability.  Paul’s wife agrees but would add that the sport really suits his hyperactive nature and is a great counter balance to a largely sedentary day job.

Celeste Duffy
owner/designer
USA

Celeste has yet to compete in a triathlon herself but does not feel this impedes her insight into the sport.  Having trailed three kids over eight years to a multitude of races not to mention accommodating her husband’s persistent and busy training schedule must certainly qualify her for some form of a finisher’s shirt.  While she waits she applies her graphic design background and her rather lengthy hours of spectating to Trix-Gear’s line of t-shirts.

Be sure to check out TRIX website and get your own gear and motivation! Team TKD is happy to be part of TRIX team!

Team TKD loves Polar Bottles

Team TKD loves Polar Bottles


Polar Bottle® is the original insulated plastic sport bottle. It keeps liquids colder longer than other water bottles. We innovated the industry back in 1994 by creating a bottle that would actually keep water cool during any outdoor activity. The bottle has evolved in the years since with brightly colored foil liners and patterns and an innovative removable valve system. Made in America, Polar Bottle is popular throughout the world.

Be sure to check out http://www.polarbottle.com/ and tell them Team TKD sent you!! You will be glad you tryed this bottle!!
