Triathlon Gear:
I always wonder what gear other triathletes use. While brand and gear choices are pretty individualized, I think it's always nice to know what others are using, so that you can get some guidance when making your own gear choices. It's also nice to have a checklist, especially if you're just getting started!

Here's a list of all my current gear. If you're a new triathlete, don't worry about getting all of it at once. The basics should be enough to get you through a sprint and maybe even an olympic distance race. As you get more serious about racing, you can keep adding to your gear collection!
