    As you probably noticed, a Triathlon subforum was set up in A/R/T a few months back. The posters to that subforum have expressed the desire to move to a full Triathlon forum, at the same level as A/R/T, rather than a subforum. They would also like to have subforums, like those in A/R/T - Events, Gear, Training logs, and Adventure Races. A proposal has been submitted. If the new Triathlon forum is created, this forum will be renamed Athletics & Running.

    To vote on these proposals, go to the following threads.

    This thread proposes the new forum
    Triathlon forum

    These ones propose the subforums
    Gear & Equipment subforum

    Training Logs subforum

    Events subforum

    Adventure Races subforum

    Voting is open on each of these requests for the next 6 weeks. To vote, go to one/all of the threads and reply. Keep it simple, +1 for yes, -1 for no
    At the end of 6 weeks the number of *clear* votes of support or opposition will be counted up.
    What counts as a clear vote?
    thanking a post is not a vote. thanking a post is just that, a thanked post.
    posting +1 is counted as support.
    Posting a reason that clearly shows support or opposition is counted
    Posting conditional support (good idea, +1 from me as long as X,Y or Z is included) is not counted as the end forum may or may not include x,y or z in its final state.
    Posting a vote multiple times will negate any previous support or opposition you have shown for the forum.

    I separated out the different subforums into different requests, and didn't include shotgunmcos as moderator in the request, because of that conditional support thing. Just vote yes or no on the proposal in the opening post.

    After 6 weeks, if there is enough support (+18 votes), the admins and Cmods will discuss the idea.
    (process details are here)

    Any questions?

    RacoonQueen had the bright idea of having a link in Athletics & Running straight to Triathlon. I think it's a great idea, it will help maintain communication between the two groups.
    I've put in requests for links in both directions, in this thread here. Follow the directions above for voting.

    If they have a gear forum also then there is going to be a load of duplication

    Only for those who wear lycra onesies when they run.

    Oh, and the Krusty Garmin thread.
