For females – when you’re done w/ the swim, do you change to biking clothes? I don’t follow the bra part?

Hi Lisa,

Thank you for contacting TriathaNewbie.com!

During Transition 1 (T1), Swim to Bike, you will keep your swim suit on and add your bike clothes on top. Some well-endowed women have girls that aren’t supported well by swim suits and they opt to wear a bra to keep them in place. You don’t need to wear a bra under your swim suit if you are comfortable with the support it provides.

Read What to Wear in a Triathlon and Race Day: Tranistion 1 (T1) for more information.
Be well.
