Modern pentathlon has risen to prominence
Modern pentathlon is one of those events that leaves many people scratching their heads in confusion.
It's a diverse and unique event, and Team GB has performed well in recent years. Here's our guide to the sport.
The sport Athletes earn points in each discipline, with the number of points gained from the first four determining the starting position for the final event - the cross-country run. Modern pentathlon requires incredible all-round fitness and stamina, as the whole event takes place in a gruelling 12 hour period.
Getting started The best way to get started is to contact the Modern Pentathlon Association of Great Britain. They'll give you loads of good advice, as well as helping you find a club in your area.
