What is a Triathlon?
A multisport endurance race that consists of swimming, cycling, and running for different distances is known as a triathlon. There are a few other forms of multisport events such as duathlon & aquathlons. Triathletes face the challenge of transitioning through these disciplines while making sure they record the fastest overall completion time!
Why wearing comfortable clothing is important for Triathlons?
Triathlons are one of the most exciting and challenging sports. It doesn’t just take willpower to get through a triathlon, but it also requires extensive training and commitment to successfully finish this competitive race. For these athletes, every small detail is paid attention to as the tiniest thing can affect race results. Wearing performance-based triathlon sports clothing is also a big factor and very important.
Uncomfortable, poor-fitting clothing will spoil your big day. It’s as simple as that. Triathletes need adequate kits to help them through all three sports. Clothing like blister-free running socks, tri-suits, sleeved speed suits, tri singlets and shorts — running apparel, cycling gear, etc.
Different Types of Comfortable Clothing: Fabric Used for Triathlon
As more people start participating in races, we see many types of sportswear. Wetsuits, swimsuits, tri-suits etc. are made with breathable, lightweight, quick-dry fabrics that help performance. Clothes resistant to water/sweat and that stay comfortable are best.
Many triathletes choose a tri-suit under their wetsuit. Tri shorts or two-piece suits are also popular because changing clothes between events wastes time. Full triathlon suits or 2-piece outfits — it depends on personal preference, comfort, and brand.
