Health Advice:

Please look after yourself and try to stay away from the medical tent! In Bintan, heat takes on a whole new meaning: high temperatures and very high humidity. These combined puts a great deal of stress to your body and places you at greater risk of
developing a heat injury.

To avoid this, here are a few tips from the Medical Director:
Start (and then stay) well hydrated!
Be sure to increase your fluid intake in the two days leading up to the race. Then on race day a combination of water and sports drink before and during the event will help keep your performance up and your injury risk down. Stop at the drink stations and cool down with a cold water sponge while grabbing your water and electrolyte drinks.

Not used to the heat? Start at a slower pace
If this is your first time at Bintan Triathlon or have been training in a cooler and less humid place, start your race at a slower pace than you normally would. Listen to your body and let it guide you to the best pace for you to race a
