Trisuits

Hi! I'm a real newbie - only 14 years old, and I wanted to know what tri suits were meant to be worn for? Do you wear them for all three legs?

Hi Michaela,
Thank you for contacting TriathaNewbie.com!

Yes, a trisuit is meant for all three of the legs. You'd want to try on on in person and find something that fits snug, but does not cut off your circulation.

BTW, we don't hear from many 14 year olds, so cheers to you on finding the sport so young and getting involved!

Be well.
~Megan
