The sport of triathlon has experienced tremendous growth over the last several years. Membership in USA Triathlon has nearly doubled since 2001 to over 70,000. One-day licenses to participate in specific events has also roughly doubled with literally hundreds of thousands of people a year paying for the privilege of swimming, biking and running with their fellow athletes. Why has there been such a huge increase in participation, and why should you join the fun? Although explanations are plentiful, the following are my own personal thoughts. |
