Episode Notes

Triathlon is an expensive sport as it is. Let's not make it any more expensive than it has to be.

In this week's episode I look at the biggest money pits in triathlon. These are upgrades and items which may seem like guaranteed speed and a sensible investment at first, but the costs can quickly spiral, or you gain little to no benefit from them.

Nearly all of these will make you faster, but are likely to have more of an impact on your wallet than your race times.
