Req 7a — Triathlon Simulation
7a.
Triathlon (swim 100 m, bike 3 km, and run 1 km)
This option gives you the full multisport experience. You will complete all three disciplines in order and show that you can transition smoothly without losing focus.
What success looks like
Success is not just finishing the distance. It also means:
- starting each leg under control
- following safety rules the whole time
- transitioning calmly
- pacing yourself so one strong leg does not ruin the next
A smart approach
Keep the swim relaxed enough that you leave the water ready to think clearly. In transition, get your helmet on before touching the bike. On the bike, stay controlled and save enough energy for the run. On the run, settle into a steady rhythm instead of sprinting out of transition.
Next is the duathlon option, which changes the rhythm by starting on the run instead of in the water.
