In this episode we discuss Tri 101 – how to start training for triathlon, choosing a first race, and where to find the gear required without spending a fortune. We have a special guest, Mai Matsumoto, who completed her first tri at the recent ATAC 'Don't Tri Too Hard' event, and club members share their experiences of their first races. We also look at the latest triathlon and endurance news, from the Netherlands and beyond.
