5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the newcomer, 21 Sep 2003

By	"niall_larkin" - See all my reviews

I took up triathlon at the start of the year and I bought this book to give me a helping hand with the nitty-gritty of what goes on.

I found it to be a great help. It covers all aspect of training, from running , swimming or cycling individually to brick sessions and putting them all together on the big day.

I also thought that the section on eating and drinking was excellent. It gave great write-ups on what electrolyte drinks to use and all about high carbohydrate meals and such.

The only thing that I would knock it on was that some sections were very basic, as if you had never run a mile in your life and were now taking up triathlon. I suppose those people do exist but I dont think much time has to be dedicated to that.

This year I've completed 2 sprint distance and 1 Olympic distance triathlon and am now looking forward to carrying it on next season.

5.0 out of 5 stars Triathlon 101 Is One To Add To Your Library, 29 April 1999

By A Customer

Triathlon 101, by John Mora, is a must have for those wanting to get into the world of triathlon. Infact, it is a must have for experienced participants. He does a nice job of breaking the sport into easy to digest terminology. I wish the book was available when I started into this crazy sport.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great overview with great references, 1 Jul 1999

By A Customer

I've just completed my first sprint tri. This book has great practical advice for novice triathaletes. Also, the author has great resources, such as other books, web sites, magazines to help with all the questions you'll have.
