On the move

Triathlon

In open water, on a bike course, and on a run course.

1 You swim, then ride a bike, then run.

2 You change sport in a transition area.

3 You must follow the course.

4 Your helmet must be on before you touch the bike.

Score. The clock runs from the start of the swim to the end of the run. Win. First across the finish line wins.

The Olympic order is always swim, bike, then run.
