Swimming Gear
Choosing the right swimwear for Singapore’s tropical climate is essential. Opt for lightweight, quick-drying materials. High-quality goggles that prevent fogging and offer UV protection are also crucial. If a wetsuit is needed, select one that balances buoyancy and flexibility.
Biking Equipment
Selecting the right bike is vital. Triathlon-specific bikes with aerodynamic features enhance performance. Ensure your bike is properly fitted to avoid injuries. Essential accessories include a helmet, cycling shoes, and a repair kit for on-the-go fixes.
Running Gear
Invest in high-quality running shoes that provide support and cushioning suited to your foot type and running style. Lightweight, moisture-wicking apparel helps manage sweat and heat. Accessories like a good running hat and sunglasses offer additional comfort and protection.
General Gear and Accessories
Hydration systems, such as belts or vests with water bottles, are crucial for maintaining hydration during training and races. Nutrition packs, including energy gels and bars, provide the necessary fuel. In transition areas, having organized gear like a triathlon bag and quick-drying towel ensures smooth changes between disciplines.
