Triathlon is a sport consisting of three races, starting with swimming, then cycling and ending with running. According to many sources, this sport was born during the period from 1920 to 1930 in France, where it was called Les Trois Sports, a French phrase meaning “the three sports.” Triathlon remained unpopular for years before it began to flourish in the late 1980s with the establishment of an international federation for this sport in 1989. From here, triathlon became very popular worldwide.
