Discussion of the Week: Neil sent this email through: In 1984 there was an tri that was based on each leg taking approximately the same amount of time. It was called the Equilateral Triathlon, ask Scott Molina he took part in it. The swim leg was 5.6 miles, the bike 50 miles and the run 20 miles. The idea was that for a quality athlete each leg would take approximately 2hrs. If there was an equilibrium triathlon today who would be World Champion? Secondly how many listeners would still be taking part if these were the distances? Comment here.
