We've said it before and we'll say it again: This is a myth for the vast majority of modern cars. The 3,000-mile oil change is the credo of the quick-oil change industry and dealership service departments, designed to regularly get you into the service bay. (Jiffy Lube recently abandoned its advocacy of the 3,000-mile rule, but clings to severe-schedule advice with which Edmunds disagrees. More on this later.)
Blenheim Palace Triathlon. Youâll have to be quick if you want a place as this event sells out fast â and for good reason. The amazing setting and beginner-friendly lake swim combine with two distances â super sprint (400m swim) and sprint (750m) â for a truly memorable first triathlon.
Sprint triathlons consist of a biking portion, a swimming portion and a run. Photo Credit Erik Isakson/Blend Images/Getty Images. A sprint triathlon is a challenging athletic event in which you have to swim a distance of 750 meters, run a distance of 5 kilometers and bike a distance of 20 kilometers.
