What I Use & Recommend
Honest, real-world equipment recommendations from a masters triathlete with over 40 years in the sport.
After more than 40 years competing in triathlon, I've learned that having the right equipment can make a real difference to training, racing and overall enjoyment of the sport.
But the most expensive equipment isn't necessarily the best.
This page brings together the products I personally use, test and recommend across swimming, cycling, running, training technology and race-day preparation.
As a masters triathlete still actively competing at 58, my focus is on equipment that delivers genuine performance, reliability and value for money.
Where possible, I'll include hands-on reviews, training experiences and YouTube videos so you can see how products perform in the real world.
Goggles, swim caps, paddles, pull buoys, wetsuits and swimming accessories.
Adult swim goggles with polarised, mirrored lenses, an anti-fog coating, a leakproof silicone seal and an easy-adjust strap, designed for both pool and open-water swimming.
