Triathlon, Start to Finish

Triathlon - a demanding combination of swimming, cycling and running - is by definition, more complicated that a single sport. How do you train for three activities at once, and remain injury free while you're doing it? Where can you practise swimming in open water? Should you focus on your strongest discipline, or your weakest? And then there's the race itself. Not only the physical challenge, but also the practicalities of getting out of a wetsuit and on to a bike against the clock, of riding a bike in close proximity to others and staying fuelled up throughout the race. This book takes the trial out of triathlon and ensures your first race experiences are fun, foolproof and successful.
