Freely Altered States Triathlon is a weird name that results in the team name FAST club. Everybody wants to be fast by their own definition and we all have different ways of getting there and different starting points as well. If we choose to be fast it's a choice we make "Freely" and if we are consistent in the approach the result will be "Altered States", referring to the euphoric state created when going hard core and the overall physical and mental changes brought about by pushing ourselves. "Freely Altered States" also refers to the change in our focus as we move through the swim, bike, and run events. If this doesn't explain it well enough we'll be OK with you saying it's a silly name because you've certainly heard it said before that Triathlon is a bit of a silly obsession.

In 1999, the Romay brothers set out to redesign the basic structure and shape of the regular sock. Their intentions were pure and simple: “We wanted to create the best possible interface that allowed the entire foot to perform naturally and freely inside our shoes, just like being barefoot. There had to be a way to combine the comfort and dexterity of bare feet with the protection of a seamless sock. Everything about the conventional tube sock works against your feet’s natural form and function.
