Introduction to Triathlon
- Triathlon is the United States' fastest growing sport and has undergone massive development around the world since its inclusion in the 2000 Olympic Games.
- The dynamic multi-discipline sport encompasses three (3) areas; swimming, cycling and running
- Competitors race against the clock from the point they enter the swim to the point they cross the finish line.
- The distances of a triathlon range from a 'super sprint' which can take under 1 hour to complete to the 'Ironman' which can take up to 20 hours to complete.
