A personal note from the author:

â€œThis book is gathered from years of training and racing, not only from my triathlon experience but from the experience of champions. I have trained with and raced with elite athletes and winners from all over the world but I started not knowing what I was doing and was scared to death when I did my first race.

I wish I had this book when I started out. I would have saved myself a lot of heart ache and stress! I wrote this to help all triathlon rookies get over their nerves and enjoy this fantastic sport.â€

â€œTriathlon For Beginnersâ€ is the start to finish complete guide which covers all the areas of triathlon training and racing including:

Where to start â€“ types of races, what you need to know and where to begin

Jargon buster â€“ helping you understand the terms of the sport so you can understand what people are talking about when they say â€œT1â€ or â€œBrickâ€!

Triathlon training rules and techniques

Swimming technique and etiquette

Running technique and how to prevent injury and run faster

Cycling in a pack what to do and what not to do

Transition â€“ how to lay it out, what to bring and how to be effective

Understanding triathlon nutrition and why it is key, how best to manage your race day fuel and does triathlon nutrition vary between triathlon training and racing

Race day â€“ what to look out for, how to prepare and what to expect

This guide takes you from start to finish so you can feel confident and comfortable when you train and race.

Here are some of the comments we have had from readers...

I loved this book!

I have completed a few triathlons- sprint, Olympic and 70.3 distance. This book really simplified what is important to focus on. There is so much to know and learn that sometimes you feel overwhelmed. It is an easy, entertaining read but packed with good knowledge that made a big difference to my racing.

I wish this was around before!

I did a number of Triathlons over the last few years. When I first took it up I had to ask peopleâ€™s advice which at best was disjointed and worst, confusing. I also read some very good stuff on the internet, however this was also disjointed and incomplete. This book would have been ideal, as it puts it all together clearly and concisely.
