About Triathlon

The first triathlon was held on Fiesta Island, California, USA in 1974 as the San Diego University Track Club ventured into new forms of instilling interest in their training programme while inventing “cross-over training” at the same time. As the ultimate endurance test, triathlon requires athletes to excel at the three “classic sports” of swimming, cycling and running. The sport requires intense training and discipline at the elite level; many people participate in triathlons because it fits in with a healthy lifestyle. They’re able to train while still pursuing careers and families. Triathlon made its Olympic debut at the 2000 Summer Olympic Games in Sydney after it was awarded full medal status six years earlier at the IOC congress in Paris. The international popularity of triathlon really started to grow after its inclusion on the Olympic programme. By 2003, ITU’s World Cup circuit expanded to 18 races in 14 different countries

COMPETITION
Triathlon races are held over four distances Sprint, Olympic, Double Olympic and Triple Olympic. The Olympic triathlon comprises a 1.5km swim, a 40km bike ride, and a 10km run. After a mass start, the race remains continuous, with no stop between the three legs. Transitions are vital to race strategy. Women typically finish in approximately two hours, while the top men usually finish in about 1 hour 50 minutes.

Properly fitted mouthguards should be the
standard equipment.

I offer an unrivaled level of support to teams or sporting groups who require bulk numbers of mouthguards. And will travel to any destination on a given day or night (ex. a night time training session) and will take impressions from a panel of players. The complete set of mouthguards will be ready for delivery within one week.
