Pack this
- Sleeveless tri suit + anti-chafe balm for 90km bike and 21km run
- Wetsuit (check legality near 24.5°C cutoff) plus goggles and tinted backup pair
- Two 750ml bike bottles with electrolyte tabs and 5-6 gels for the ride
- SPF50 sunscreen, visor, and dark sunglasses for the Caribbean sun
- Photo ID, signed IRONMAN waiver, and timing chip from athlete check-in
What you should know
- Mandatory bike and gear-bag check-in the day before; transition closes early race morning, so arrive with time to rack.
- Wetsuit legality is called race morning; Caribbean water often exceeds 24.5°C, so bring a swimskin as backup.
- Body marking and helmet sticker required; CPSC-approved helmet only, chin strap buckled before touching the bike.
- Drafting is prohibited on the bike — keep a 12m gap; littering outside aid zones earns a penalty at the next tent.
- Expect 33°C with high humidity: pace conservatively, take aid every station, and balance water with electrolytes.
