Subject: RE: Eco-friendly triathlon training Ive never really thought through this and am having trouble really identifying major places to make changes in my training. I do 80 to 90 percent of my training at home on the trainer or on the treadmill so Im not burning gas to travel to workout.
I guess I could steer away from the single serve Gu that I use (maybe 12-20 times a year ), but the wrapper is recyclable from what I understand. I always use reusable cycling bottles.
I guess the biggest place I could see improvement would be at races. A lot of wasted cups and supplies at aid stations at every race. I know a lot of trail races have gone the route of runners having to bring their own soft flask or bottle to fill up at aid stations. Maybe triathlon could lean towards this a bit.
Id be interested in hearing some changes you've made to possibly spark some inspiration for myself. |
