If you like the idea of competing in the ultimate sporting challenge then triathlon could be just the thing for you.

It's a combination of swimming, running and cycling and there are shorter distance races for the younger ones out there.

Why not check out the British Triathlon Association website to start with and get thinking about finding a club.
