A standard distance triathlon involves a 1.5km swim, a 40km bike ride and a 10km run. Short enough for confident beginners but long enough to be a real endurance challenge, Olympic triathlons have a lot to offer - and as the most popular type of triathlon in the UK, there are plenty of events to choose from.
