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.
A triathlon is a multiple-stage competition involving the completion of three continuous and sequential endurance disciplines. While many variations of the sport exist, triathlon, in its most popular form, involves swimming, cycling, and running in immediate succession over various distances.Triathletes compete for fastest overall course completion time, including timed transitions between the individual swim, cycle, and run components.he standard Olympic distance of 1.5/40/10 km (0.93/24.8/6.2 miles) was created by longtime triathlon race director Jim Curl in the mid-1980s, after he and partner Carl Thomas produced the U.S. Triathlon Series (USTS) between 1982 and 1997.
