    Huh? How? There’s no leadership structure to it to provide that cultish vibe, it’s mostly just individuals are small groups of friends doing their thing together.

      Nah just kidding, the joke is participants of either individual sport (swimming, running, cycling) dislike the other disciplines ergo triathletes are nuts. But getting Ironman tattoos is kind of groupthink-y.

        Do they? Most cyclists I know do at least a bit of running.

        Swimming though…even triathletes think swimmers are nuts.
