So here’s the bad news, folks…
You haven’t exactly picked an inexpensive sport.
Especially for newcomers, triathlon can be a bit intimidating, because of the cost barrier to entry.
Multi-sport is amazing, until you realize that you have to buy gear for swimming, cycling, and running. Not to mention nutrition, recovery, tech, coaching, race entries, ect.
Here’s the good news. We want to help out!
So we’ve partnered with some of our favorite companies to offer you discounts on gear, nutrition, recovery tools, and much more.
It can also be hard deciding what to buy, so Matt and I have created a personal recommendation list with EVERYTHING we use for swim, bike, and run.
It’s a 10-page PDF with our picks for wetsuits, goggles, tri suits, glasses, bikes, tires, saddles, watches, running shoes, recovery tools, nutrition, tech, training apps, and much more.
*Full disclosure, we do not receive kickbacks from these companies. (The only company we receive a commission from is Cool Mitt, at no additional cost to you.) This is just gear we enjoy using ourselves and recommend to our friends.
Check out the Vermeer Gear Guide in the Free Downloads section of the blog.
Before we get to the discounts, here’s a collection of product reviews for some of the items we enjoy using.
