When you think of healthy fats, you can think of peanuts, peanut butter, and peanut oil. That is because at least half of the fat in peanuts is heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, the kind found in olive oil and avocados. And over 30% is polyunsaturated fat; another good fat important in a healthy diet.
At half the distances of a full Ironman -- a 1.2-mile (1.9-kilometer) swim, 56-mile (90-kilometer) bike ride and a 13.1-mile (21-kilometer) run -- the Ironman 70.3 series is the fastest growing triathlon series in the world.
Distance Ranges. In addition to the standard race distances, a race director could design a race that falls within a category: short, intermediate, long or ultra. A short-distance triathlon is anything that involves a swim of 0.2 to 0.6 miles, a bike portion of 5 to 18.6 miles and a run of 1 to 3.9 miles.he Olympic distance, which is the same distance competed in at the international Olympic Games, has an athlete swim for 0.9 miles, or 1.5 kilometers; cycle for about 25 miles, or 40 kilometers; and run 6.2 miles, or a 10K.
