The 1000 MILE SOCK is a sock within a sock. The inner layer stays with the foot, the outer layer moves with the shoe, thus eliminating friction on the skin and reducing wear.

The unique mixture of fibers keeps the foot cool, dry and blister free.1000 Mile socks are available in 50 different styles, so whether you require a moisture wicking sports sock, a comfortable argyle sock or a blend of Tactel® nylon and wool for walking or trekking... there's a sock in the range for every individual.

Each sock is available in the following sizes for a complete customised fit: Small UK 2-4½, Medium UK 5-7½, Large UK 8-10½, Extra Large UK 11-13

Guaranteed: no blisters or wear -out within a thousand miles of use!

The primary distinguishing feature of running in a triathlon is that it occurs after the athlete has already been exercising in two other disciplines for an extended period of time, so many muscles are already tired.

The effect of switching from cycling to running can be very profound; first-time triathletes are often astonished at the bizarre sensation in their thighs a few hundred yards into the run and discover that they run at a much slower pace than they are accustomed to in training.

Triathletes train for this phenomenon through transition workouts or "bricks": back-to-back workouts involving two disciplines, most commonly cycling and running. (The term "brick" is derived from a partial anagram of Bike-Run.)
