From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A aquathlon is a multisport race with continuous and sequential run and swim elements. Two major variants of the sport exist, either a swim followed by a run or a run-swim-run event both over various distances. Athletes compete for fastest overall course completion, including timed transitions between the disciplines.
