Nice chris...
but lets get serious.
Haiku Is three lines, with a syllable count of 5/7/5. Often done with a 7/7 "answer" to the first section.
Wet suit on and tight
bike waiting in transition
shoes call my name
Wetsuit a crumpled heap
Bike and shoes exhasuted
Sea of ebon hush
thrashing churning swim buoy swim
emerge unsteady run
hurry shed that clinging skin
another waits nigh sunset
Cayman...Wicked Haiku!
Thanks Anton, nice thread Christri25.
Good lord, I havent done this since like 4th grade. Might not be spot on, but close enough. Guess where I just came from...
Chains clicking softly
Flashes of color blurring
Brakes dragging dirt
Sun, bugs, clay, and smiles
Trails beckon me home
I LOVE Haiku:
Three sports -- swim, bike, run.
Try being good at them all!
Every day is fun.
Practicing three sports tires me.
I must recover as well.
Push through water, wind, air
Endure pain, sweat, fear, for desire
Legs lungs hurt we fight.
Each day repeat to be better
To be the best we can be.
moving feet forget
and paddling hands too busy
to ponder evil
so I have to keep moving
because I can't change the world
Sorry....I'm in a bit of a funk right now.
All these are funny. well done all.
But I'm giving the prize to triguy98 so far

You have come the closest to including a reference to a season in your Haiku (another Haiku tradition)

(Zen Reference for the uninitiated)

a chocolate GU applied by a TTGW
rumors lose control
for that I am not to blame,
Beads is my nickname
can it change, I think not now,
on my gravestone it will be
Trifuel Girls Gone Wild,
chocolate gu, cool whip,
a reason to tri
some may question me on this.
noble? not really, fun yes!!
Scott...you crack me up!
I just KNEW yours would involve TGGW and sticky stuff.
Running and talking,
A conversational pace,
Runners become friends
Goofy Challenge, at Disney,
Trifuel friends will meet again :cool:
Long gone days return
Wheels singing over pavement
Freedom and flying
Not a care in this harsh world
I found my fountain of youth.

Woo! She knows who she is ;)
it's been a long time, here goes -
computer apps are closing
shutting down for now
so i can do my workout
swimming in quiet water
stress behind life before me
Hot breeze in my face
Burning legs pump out cadence
Sweat gets in my eyes
Top of the climb within reach
Another mesa falls out
Amber and Corinne,
Daughters of mine, hair of red
My motivation
marathons or triathlons
hugs await when I finish :D
salty sweat slides
through my face 'to my eyes
and I think of her
will she be there to hug me?
I shouldn't have rushed things
self-biographical haiku... is my syllabs count ok? I'm not a native English speaker, so my syllab count may be wrong...
Therapy I need
How can I get rid of stress
Can I find relief?
Swim bike and run is the cure
It will bring me peace of mind
