My bachelor thesis in triathlon

Analysis of the current state of training records in triathlon

I surveyed around 180 Czech triathletes across age and performance groups: which sports watch or training device they use, which external sensors, which apps and which metrics matter most to them. Some findings were expected, many were surprising. For example, every performance group tracks training about equally often, but elite triathletes measure their races less than hobby athletes do.

The theoretical part is a complete historical overview of training plans and diaries in triathlon, from paper notebooks in the 1970s to today's cloud-based mobile apps. Read the Results or just the Conclusion to get the key findings.
