Try a triathlon

October 24, 2011 By

If you’re really into cycling but want to give yourself a new challenge, you could try doing a triathlon.  Most people who do one triathlon find that they get hooked.
Triathlon is a relatively young sport – it only started in the 1970s when a groups of friends who were swimmers, cyclists and runners started training together.  It wasn’t long before they combined the disciplines. Standard triathlons these days consist of the three sports of swimming, cycling and running.  The race is against the clock, which starts as you enter the water and stops as you cross the finish line at the end of the run.  The time between each stage is also seen as part of the race – and is known as the transition.
What kit you need
Until you’ve decided if triathlon is for you, you don’t need to spend out on specialist clothing.  It’s best to wear something that’s closefitting – like a singlet and shorts.  If your swim is on open water, you’ll want to wear clothes that fit under a wetsuit.  Wetsuits are compulsory if the water is below 14 degrees. A swimming hat is definitely worth buying as it lowers resistance. Goggles are also a must, so you can see where you’re going.
Of course you’ll need a bike, but any bike will do.  Make sure you give your bike a good service – you don’t want to get caught out by a puncture on the day of the triathlon. Wearing a helmet is obligatory, at all levels of triathlon.
Although specialist cycling shoes are not essential, you’ll need a decent pair of running shoes, and make sure you can change in and out of your footwear easily during the race.
By definition, triathletes are people who like to get around under their own steam. So when they have to use a vehicle they tend to opt for something that’s environmentally friendly – for example Honda cars such as the fuel-efficient Honda Insight. You’ll usually need a car to get you and your equipment to the race and you can ask a friend or relative to act as your support team.
Joining a club is a great way to get started in triathlon – and there’s a sense of teamwork and belonging when you race with fellow club members.  There are over 350 triathlon clubs in the UK, so you should easily find one close to you.
