Age Group Triathlon Podcast

Professional athletes are some of the fittest individuals in the planet, who can complete a full Ironman in the time it takes some of us to complete a half!

As triathlete we own a lot of kit, and not all of it lasts forever. While some bits of kit can last for decades, others may only last a matter of months. In this episode I look at which pieces of equipment you need to replace, and some very rough ideas of when to replace them.

In the last few years there has been a definite uptick in the number of races in the UK where wetsuits are banned. Whatever the reasons, I\m here to help you prepare.

In this episode I cover how to stop your legs from sinking, good kick mechanics, how to mentally prepare for a non wetsuit swim, as well as training you condo to prepare yourself for the eventuality where you turn up one day and wetsuits are indeed banned. 

I'm afraid I do not have the ankle and calf flexibility resource ready yet, check back in a few days.

In this week's episode I look at the rules of triathlon as written out by British Triathlon, although most of these apply to all race organisers. I go over most of the rules very briefly, trying to help you understand which rules are actually important, and which aren't appropriate for you, without reading through a very long, weighty document.
