What muscles are used in a Triathlon?
Triathlon encompasses swimming, biking, and running, and so it involves almost all of your muscles. Your "tri muscles" are those muscles that carry the bulk of the muscle load for swimming, biking, and running. For swimming, it's your lats, chest, and shoulders. For biking and running, it's your quads, hamstrings, glutes, and calves. Another key muscle group area is commonly referred to as your "core muscles," which include the abdominal muscles, the lumbar region (or lower back), and the thoracic and cervical region of the spine. These muscles serve to provide stability, support, and a solid base for the rest of the body to function maximally.

Who many muscles work while running?
Quite a few muscles go to work while running. While there are the obvious muscles (Such as calf, thigh, hip, and hamstrings) other muscles are subtly at work also. The abdominal muscles are slightly worked, along with the arms and back muscles. The arms are constantly swinging, going against air friction/wind during the run. Your back helps keep you in the upright position and is constantly shifting while you take each step. So pretty much your entire body goes to work while running (even your toes which push you off the ground). Hope that helped :)
