The 2000 Summer Olympics was the first official appearance of the triathlon in the Olympics. The 2004, 2008, and 2012 Olympics have all been identical to the first in distance. The distances used are the "international" or "standard" ones, with a 1.5 km (0.93 mi) swim, 40 km (25 mi) cycle, and a 10 km (6.2 mi) run.
If you think it's no, your wrong. If you think it's right, your wrong. It's both.
