Clinics

 

Transition Clinic –  Presented by Coach Brian Yates

A transition area at a triathlon is the designated area where participants transition from one leg of the race to another. The transition area is typically located in a designated area near the swim finish and bike start.

In a triathlon, there are two transition areas – T1 and T2. T1 is the transition between the swim and bike legs of the race, while T2 is the transition between the bike and run legs of the race.

The transition clinic is a session or briefing held before the race to provide participants with information on how to efficiently transition between each leg of the race. The clinic may cover topics such as how to set up your transition area, what to wear, how to quickly change from swim gear to bike gear, and how to efficiently change from biking shoes to running shoes.

The transition clinic is a great opportunity for participants to learn and practice the skills they need to transition between each leg of the race successfully and efficiently.
