Sprint Triathlons Involve Specific Equipment
To train for the shortest of the triathlon events you must be sure you have the proper equipment. It is important to check the rules for each event as what is allowed differs for each race. One thing to consider purchasing is a specialized triathlon wetsuit. The one you use often depends on the water temperature. The most expensive piece of equipment you will need is a bike that is specifically designed for triathlons. The aerodynamics and balance are all geared not to overuse muscles that will be needed for the run. A quality pair of running shoes rounds out the list of equipment needed for a sprint triathlon.
