Most people are now aware of the need to remain healthy. Take a walk down the street at any time and be sure to walk along some joggers. Health issues have been taken with the seriousness they deserve. Although most people are out there enjoying the breeze and fresh air, some are busy training for the kinetic half.

It all began out with the idea of an athlete. On getting in a biathlon, he began to wonder how difficult it would be if the distances covered by athletes while running and also those covered by swimmers is increased significantly. A course was made in such a way that there would be a track where one would run bare footed and another track where one would need shoes. On doing this, he consulted on whether this event would feature in the calendar.

The water used in this event was subjected to a temperature level of fifteen degree Celsius. One thus required a wet suit. The competition which involved cycling bikes was conducted along the lakes and also in areas with hills with good views. Pavements were used in most cases. Most people consider cycling pavements are difficult; however, their way is divided in such a way that there is a watering point after every fifteen or twenty kilometer mark.

This event consists of some proportions of distances to be covered by athletes during different competitions. They include running, biking and swimming. They are then broken down into small parts. The running would be done in two different places. One would be on the sand and the other place is on the grass. Shoes may be needed when necessary. The participants are required to have their own bikes.

This event is full of fun activities. However, it is important to consider some health factors before participating in such events. This is because of some health problems such as Achilles tendinitis. This happens when one increases the distance run without giving the body time to adjust to the changes. One feels pain at the back of the heel and it hurts while running. Stiffness is also a sign.

This form of an event usually provides a forum through which people may interact, socialize and also share ideas. It caters for the various age brackets involved in the competition. Its organization considers age as a basis of grouping or forming a team.

The event is usually in such a way that team work is promoted. Teams are formed to promote competitiveness in the activities of the day. One can participate in more than one activity and receive a price for that. This enhances the degree of willingness to participate in the various events.

Fun activities are an important part of life. They should thus be given some fair treatment and attention they deserve. However, active leisure should be spent with health considerations. The body needs to adjust to any changes and thus any random change could affect its normal state. Thus such events should be engaged with moderation.
