Need help improving my bike

Hello ive been using a bike my uncle gave me for some full size triathlons and I want to start getting into 140.6 training. The bike I’m using is pictured below and I was wondering if I should spend a couple hundred bucks improving thisu bike because I’m really not trying to spend thousands. I’m not looking to break records just a reliable bike that I don’t need to use all my power for. Any advice on how much or what to improve with my current situation? Aero bars, new gears, etc?

New bike or improve?

Hello,

I am looking to do a 140.6. I have done Olympic distances triathlons with my decent road bike but do I need to spend thousands on a new bike or do you think it’s possible to spend 4-500 upgrading my current road bike such as new gears, chain, aero bars, tires etc?
