I have trained with and raced with elite athletes and winners from all over the world but I started not knowing what I was doing and was scared to death when I did my first race. I wish I had this book when I started out. I would have saved myself a lot of heart ache and stress! I wrote this to help all triathlon rookies get over their nerves and enjoy this fantastic sport." "Triathlon for beginners" is the start to finish complete guide which covers all the areas of training and racing including:* Where to start - types of races, what you need to know and where to begin* Jargon buster - helping you understand the terms of the sport so you can understand what people are talking about when they say "T1" or "Brick"!* Training rules and techniques* Swimming technique and etiquette* Running technique and how to prevent injury and run faster* Cycling in a pack what to do and what not to do* Transition - how to lay it out, what to bring and how to be effective* Understanding nutrition and why it is key, how best to manage your nutrition and what is best to eat for triathlon training and racing* Race day - what to look out for, how to prepare and what to expectThis guide takes you from start to finish so you can feel confident and comfortable when you train and race.Here are some of the comments we have had from readers...I loved this book!I have completed a few triathlons- sprint and Olympic distance. This book really simplified what is important to focus on. There is so much to know and learn that sometimes you feel overwhelmed. It is an easy, entertaining read but packed with good knowledge that made a big difference to my racing.Charlotte Campbell, World Games triathlon gold medallist I wish this was around before!I did a number of Triathlons over the last few years. When I first took it up I had to ask people's advice which at best was disjointed and worst, confusing. I also read some very good stuff on the internet, however this was also disjointed and incomplete. This book would have been ideal, as it puts it all together clearly and concisely.Liam Harrington; sprint triathlete, Are you thinking about getting into triathlon or doing your first race?

- s***s (10)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe package was shipped here fast, and the CDs were in good condition, but the case got stuck to the pamphlet inside. The seller did tell the truth in saying it was acceptable as was described, and he chose a good price for this, as it is 2 CDs that are almost 15 years old.
- l***3 (19)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis is the second purchase I made from this seller, and they have quickly become an e-bay favorite! The shipping was SUPER fast, the packaging was carefully rendered, and the DVD itself was in BEAUTIFUL condition. Like my last purchase, the DVD was brand new and still encased in shrink wrap. What an amazing seller! I cannot recommend them highly enough. Also, it feels nice to support an organization who is helping our marginalized communities. Thank you for everything!
- y***z (3579)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe Make Room For Daddy Vol. 1 used DVD was in great condition. The slip case is in great condtion as well as the DVD and was a great value. The Make Room for Daddy Vol. 1 DVD was packed in a heavy manila bubble wrap envelope. ClickgoodwillBooks offered 5 star + customer service. I received the DVD in 5 days from Indianapolis Indiana. A very nice eBay seller to buy from to help out a charity.
