Today Santa visited the sales and spent a small fortune! It would have been a bigger fortune but 20% off is always tempting. The equipment side of triathlon is very important and today I splashed out on new shoes with graphite soles and extra venting. The theory is that in Lanza I will need the ventilation because of the heat - 6-7 hours in the bike before a 4 hour run, need to look after the feet!
The graphite soles mean the shoe is stiffer and more power will be delivered as there will be less flex in the shoe. This also required new pedals to maximise the investment in the shoes. I am hoping the spend will show in my bike time but in addition to lots of training you need the proper equipment.
