Whether it’s daily training or participating in an actual event, a triathlon is quite a difficult challenge indeed. The aim of TRBB is to allow people to know that they are not alone in their training. By becoming a member of the club, you become part of a big family. Encouraging one another, supporting and helping each other. Allowing people who did not know each other to come together and all work towards a common goal. Then share this warm, welcoming and encouraging spirit with even more people.
The meaning and value of triathlon has a three-fold meaning for the founder – Steven Tsai (Iron Daddy)
- Be responsible for yourself and your family – finishing a race is an affirmation of responsibility and building confidence in yourself. Cherishing your family members who are by your side during this process is also an acknowledgement of this responsibility.
- Take advantage of every opportunity in the moment – Take advantage of every training session and cherish the opportunity to train with a partner.
- Give back to the community/society – Know how to be grateful. Know how to give and give back if you have the ability and time. Then pass on this spirit of selfless dedication.
Companionship is the best way to boost motivation. Knowing that you have a partner to face difficult challenges together and someone who shares the same goals as you. This feeling of peace of mind and expectation makes every hardship more meaningful. By organizing various group trainings and activities, TRBB allows club members to interact closely with each other, in an atmosphere of mutual encouragement. We hope to let more people experience sports as a fun and healthy hobby, and to enjoy it.
The origin of the name TRBB:
“TR” stands for T’ie Ren (lit. Iron man) - hoping everyone will uphold the discipline, perseverance and accept all challenges in life bravely as “Iron man”.
"B" stands for B’aa (lit. to pull or elevate) – Motivate each other and let your positive energy affect the people around you.
"B" stands for Ba (lit. chin) - When running, remember to keep your "ba" (chin) up and move toward the finish line ahead.
Every member of the TRBB community is like family. If you give me a hand today, I will give you a hand next time. Your success will be the best medicine to inspire others. Everyone will definitely face a time when they need to ask for help, and the original intent of TRBB is to encourage each other, help each other, and challenge goals together through the power of the team. In addition, there is a group of selfless and enthusiastic volunteers in the club who are willing to give their all to ensure that all participating partners gain a greater sense of identity and belonging.
The spirit of triathletes is not only limited to the competition, but can also be extended to practice and play in all aspects of life: "Set goals and use positive power to complete them."
This year, TRBB shares with its TRBB 2.0 members, the collaboration Balance patch (12 patch packs). The design integrates the spiritual mottos of TRBB and also offered in the classic colors from past TRBB team uniforms (mustard yellow, peach pink, olive green, grey blue, and bright green) to create exclusive mineral patches, hoping to bring relief to the daily discomfort for group members in a safe and drug-free way.
Artificer believes that triathlon is more than just a sport. Every training session and competition is not only about hoping to better oneself, but also a process of pursuing a balance between family, work, and training in a busy life; learning to work as a team sharing and contributing, and cherish every day of sweating together! The determination and perseverance possessed by every triathlete undoubtedly makes them Artificers worth learning from.
