I don quite understand what happens after the swim. Do the kids go to the restroom or locker room and change into their biking clothes?
In triathlon, the swimming apparel (swimsuit) is worn the entire event. After the swim, the participant goes to his/her bike rack in the transition area, where their bike, helmet and clothes are waiting for them. Some athletes choose to do the whole race in simply their suit (using a race belt to attach their bib number); others put on a t-shirt after the swim; and others put on a tshirt and shorts after the swim. Whatever you choose, it should be something that you(your child) feels comfortable wearing during the bike and run. Please note that changing clothes (nudity) is not permitted in the transition area.
