Triathlon has been gaining popularity since 1980s and it has been well embraced by different races and age brackets just to see how their endurance would bring to finish line in one piece.
I recently completed my novice triathlon, and joined firsthand in a sprint triathlon but only in the run leg. And, from the race briefings held and actual race, triathlon is no joke to attend to.

But, after the race, savor your winning moment as you join your fellow triathletes in a post - race party with all the music, food and beer, cheers and yells for medals and finisher's goodies among others.
So, before you join any triathlon competition, make sure to know the race essentials and what shouldn't be brought otherwise it may mean disqualification.
Train well for your upcoming triathlon but be safe and have super fun.
