The event originated in the early 1970s when a group of athletes decided to combine three existing endurance races into one ultimate test of fitness: a 2.4-mile ocean swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a 26.2-mile marathon run. This challenging triathlon format has since become one of the most iconic and prestigious events in the world of endurance sports.
