TSP19: Books To Start Your Triathlon History Journey
I think all modern triathletes should be reading about our sport’s past. Especially the eighties stuff. To understand the history of the game. And decide where we should take it. So today I’m talking about twelve triathlon books to get you started on your triathlon history journey.
Some of the books are modern look-backs and some are books from the early days of the sport that give you a cool feel for the era. Decide what you’re more into and go and get hold of some. Here we go. In no particular order of favouritism or period.
