2020 brings the start of a brand new decade, giving you a brand new opportunity to discover a NEW you.
If you are bored with the usual gym routine, or doing a single discipline sport, why not mix them up for something more exciting?
- If you are good in running and cycling, consider doing a duathlon.
- If you are good in swimming and running, try an aquathlon.
- If you want to combine swimming, cycling and running, then give triathlon a go!
See our tips below on getting started in multisports.
- You can always join a group of friends, or clubs to get started with your training.
- Do not think about speed at first, just get into the groove and get the hang of it.
- Once you have got it, consider investing in some equipment and gear. For example, a triathlon specific bike or shoes to fit the distance you will run.
- Consider some massages, stretch or yoga sessions to reduce the chances of getting injured and give yourself a break. It is not always about pushing your limits.
- Check the events calendar, then register to make your commitment. And train for it.
