Just because it has sprint in the title it doesn’t mean that this event will be over quickly. Fuelling is still important for a sprint triathlon, you just don’t need the same quantities as an Olympic triathlon or ironman. The message here is simple. Stay hydrated and start the race well fuelled. It’s also easiest to take on most of your fuel on the bike or in transition.
