You can run through the athlete guide book

100% sure they're using high5 gels

Not sure what isotonic drinks but I think it's 100plus

For the rules

As long as it doesn't cover neck, forearms and lower leg you're fine..

Which trisuit are you using that is covering your whole body? I think the item you were referring to is a wetsuit?

derosa fliuit, no it doesn't cover arms, lower legs and neck, but it does have compression. so the AIG says "Compression wear may NOT be worn DURING non-wetsuit swims, but may be worn upon the completion of the swim" which is what concerns me.

thx for the gel/hydration update.

Oh those are fine then..

The compression they're talking about are like compression calve and arm sleeves

But if you would like to double check, feel free to email them and do update us brows.gif

During bike leg, I believe the road marshall will only come and provide you with tubes and will not help in changing them?

Heard many crashes on the bike coz the datai stretch was really slippery in the rain.

Saw a few guys running with arm slings, 1 Indian guy looked like broke his wrist or arm and still running.

Congratulations you’re an iron man!

Next one will be better since you’ll have had an opportunity to improve on your weaknesses..

Did you base your effort on wattage or feel?

Nevernindlah just learn from the effort.

My first tri was a bit of a disaster and what I learnt is that I need to learn how to cycle properly 😂

I’m going to try the 70.3 in Langkawi next year so 2019 is going to be a lot of base training and working on my limitations for me!

A good deal is the 25% off on training peaks or the 2 free months on strava

Finished the Aquathlon in Pantai Klebang, Melaka over the weekend. swim conditions... were not so great. Shallow, muddy, zero visibility

Now seeing this was my 2nd multi-sport event, the first being the triathlon in Putrajaya - which was only slightly less muddy - are all the local swim legs like this?

Any good events to look forward to in 2019?

Congratulations!! No it's not actually, most of the swims on the west coast are pretty much murky and it's something that we all have to get use to it!

East coast like Trengganu shores are beautiful! The seas are clear until you reach the deeper part of the sea!
