Olympics Triathlon

Hamish Carter, the New Zealand triathlete and Olympic gold medalist, typically trains for around 25 to 30 hours a week, which averages to about 3.5 to 4.5 hours a day. His training regimen includes swimming, cycling, and running, tailored to enhance his performance in triathlons. However, the exact hours can vary depending on his training phase and upcoming competitions.

A masters classification in a triathlon typically refers to age group categories for athletes who are usually 40 years and older, allowing them to compete against peers in their age range. These classifications help ensure fair competition by grouping athletes based on their experience and physical capabilities, as older athletes may have different performance levels compared to younger competitors. The specific age ranges can vary by event, but they generally include several age brackets, such as 40-44, 45-49, and so on.

A triathlon is primarily an aerobic event, as it involves sustained endurance activities—swimming, cycling, and running—over a significant duration. While there are anaerobic components, particularly during high-intensity efforts like sprinting or climbing, the overall nature of a triathlon relies on aerobic metabolism for energy. Therefore, it is best categorized as an aerobic endurance event.

Simon Lessing set the world record for the olympic distance triathlon of 1:39:50 racing in Cleveland, UK in 1996 (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Lessing). As far as I know this record still stands.

The first triathlon was at MIssion Bay, San Diego, California.

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.

They are two very different activities. They require different sets of training. taekwondo sparring requires intense levels onf energy in short bursts (like sprinting). A triatholon requires a great deal of endurance (like a marathon). It's a matter of personal preference.

swimming, biking, and running

No. extreme sports being. Paintball, or extreme mountian biking things along thoughs lines. triathlon is just an competition made of a mix of different sports.

There are a lot of variables to this question. Some people who have been properly trained to swim could easily finish 750 meters in 15 or 20 minutes. I could not find a world record, but if one did exist it would have to be around the 8 to 10 minute mark. The 400 meter freestyle record is just over 4 minutes. A novice who swims, but is not very fast could practice with his/her endurance and complete 750 meters in 25 or 30 minutes without much problem. Hope this helps.

I don't know. But look on google. they'll give the answer. Let me tell you what to type. google.com/the person you want to look up.
