Triathlon

Triathlon is sport which combines swimming, cycling and distance running

What is Triathlon?

We give you a very simple definition with a touch of irony: Swimming, cycling, running - that's it! ​

 

​Triathlon consists of a series of three disciplines, which are swimming, cycling and running, by the same athlete and in the same order.

Preconceived ideas about triathlon

Television liked to show these beings deformed by pain, accomplishing, without rational preparation, inhuman distances as in Hawaii or Nice, sweating blood and water for the pure and hard pleasure of hurting themselves. One can even ask the following question: Circus games or sports competition? ​

 

The public recognizes the infinite courage of these "fighters" of the new dawn of triathlon. But at the same time, he denounced the absurdity of a sport where suffering takes precedence over reason. ​ These can be summed up in the mixed reactions of the media and their impact on the public.

 

They are proofs of the power of the media that can touch man's faculties and certainly influence him, depending on the narrative, the description or the representation of the data of a demonstration.
