Triathlon

A triathlon is a multi-sport event that consists of three sequential disciplines: swimming, cycling, and running. Athletes compete in this order, completing each leg consecutively with minimal transition time in between. Distances vary by race type, with popular formats including sprint, Olympic, half-Ironman, and Ironman distances. Participants train extensively to build endurance and strength across all three sports, making triathlons both physically challenging and rewarding. The event tests not only athletic ability but also mental resilience and strategy, as athletes must manage their energy and transition skills throughout the competition.
