what is the 3 sports in a triathlon?

A triathlon is an athletic event made up of three contests (from the Greek). In contemporary usage, the name triathlon is mostly applied to a combination of swimming, cycling and running, in that order. In most modern triathlons, these events are placed back-to-back in immediate sequence and a competitor's official time includes the time required to "transition" between the individual legs of the race, including any time necessary for changing clothes and shoes. As a result, proficiency in swimming, running, and cycling alone is not sufficient to guarantee a triathlete a competitive time: trained triathletes have learned to race each stage in a way that preserves their energy and endurance for subsequent stages.

You named 2....football and racing.  There's also motorcross, biking or cycling, military, the fireman helmet, motor cycle and baseball.  That names just a few.\n\nConstruction hat is a helmet too.

It's a great question and a great debate!\n\nFitness?  Endurance?  Triathletes, adventure sportsmen, and Tour de France cyclists.\n\nPower?  American football and rugby.\n\nAgility?  Coordination?  Football (soccer) and basketball.  Tennis and Golf too!\n\nGrace (and power!)?  Gymnastics.\n\nAs you look above, you see why it's so difficult to name one athlete as the "best".\n\nBut, my favorite pure athletes are the adventure sportsmen.  Endurance is obviously needed.  So is strength.  But take in mind the events they cope with in a usual race:\n\nRunning / Hiking / Bouldering\nOrienteering\nMountain Biking\nMountain Climbing / Rapelling\nRowing / Kayaking\n\nThey need to combine mental strength with ability in multiple disciplines.\n\nThis argument will rage on, but I can't help but be awed by adventure sportsmen.

I'd look for a triathlon club near you.  You can find a list of triathlon clubs here: http://www.usatriathlon.org/Clubs_Regions/clubs_find.htm  for example, if you're in the LA area, a great club is the LA Tri Club (www.LATriClub.com).  \n\nAnother option is to train through an organization like "Team in Training" which provides coaching in return for your fundraising.  http://www.teamintraining.org/hm_tnt\n\nFinally, there are some good websites that have articles geared toward the beginner triathlete, like: www.trinewbies.com\n\nI hope that helps....have a ball!

ma femme fait du triathlon. \n\nAvantages : développement du souffle, du cycle cardio-vasculaire, du corps en général. L'association des 3 sports (natation, cyclisme et course) permet d'obtenir un physique équilibré et harmonieux :-). Très bon esprit dans ce sport, beaucoup d'entraide.\n\nInconvénients : 3 sports donc 3 fois plus d'entraînements. Eprouvant, surtout si tu fais des compétitions.
