Nevern, Never Never try new nutrition or new equipment on race day. No matter how cool the stuff at the expo looks dont try it out for the first time during the race

After much deliberation we are proud to announce that the first winner of the 32GI hamper is Garfield2010 with the following tip

 

"Make the swim bearable for every athlete. At the start, please stand as you would expect to exit the water. In other words fast swimmers in the front and slow pokes at the back.

 

In a perfect world there should not be one collision (yeah right)

 

If it is your first triathlon and you are unsure. Stand 50 metres to the side and swim wide. Yes you might swim an additional 500m overall but see that as Triathlon initiation"

 

Garfield, we will be in touch shortly to make arrangments for the delivery of your prize.

 

Please note all tips will be included in the grand prize draw.

 

Watch this space.

Study the course and race rules. Especially for the off-road triathlons. Not only will you ensure you don't get penalised but you will have more confidence (less nerves) on the day knowing what to expect and how to handle yourself.

Transition trick: 1st put on your sunglasses, then your helmet. That way the straps of the helmet go over the glasses and they won't get ripped off your face when you take off the helmet in T2.

(In my opinion, sunglasses is a must)
