Triathlons demand peak physical performance, and your sunscreen should be just as tough. With hours spent swimming, cycling, and running under the sun, endurance athletes need a sunscreen that stays put, resists water and sweat, and offers broad-spectrum protection.
Why Sunscreen Matters in Triathlons
Extended sun exposure during triathlons puts you at risk of sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer. The right sunscreen acts as a shield, protecting your skin while allowing you to focus on the race. But not all sunscreens are built for endurance. Many wear off quickly, leaving your skin vulnerable during the most intense moments of competition.
What to Look for in Triathlon Sunscreen
- Broad-Spectrum SPF50+ Protection: Safeguards your skin from both UVA and UVB rays.
- Very Water and Sweat Resistance: Essential for prolonged outdoor activities.
- Non-Greasy, Easy Application: Ensures comfort and doesn’t interfere with performance.
- Environmentally Safe: Look for reef-safe formulas to protect the oceans you swim in.
