Clydesdale

Event for heavy male athletes weighing over 200 pounds (91 kg), not necessarily a formal contest.
Clydesdale is an age group for larger male athletes in long-distance endurance activities such as triathlons and running. This is because heavier athletes tend not to do as well in longer races, where lighter is better. This age group is not used in most races, but is found in triathlons as well as some running races. Over 200-pound cyclists may also employ the use of this term, though less so in bicycle races. The female version of this age group is known as Athena, typically for females who weigh 145-165, though this can vary depending on the event organizer.
