    EUROPEAN TRIATHLON UNION ETU EVENT STATUS: 2001 – 2016 1. INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this document is to provide details about the status of the past and current ETU Events, including strengths and weaknesses. Recommendations will follow each section to provide an opportunity for further discussion with ITU and at the various levels at ETU. ETU main goals on events are: a) Increase the general participation of triathlon and all related multisport in all age-group categories within Europe; b) Provide opportunities for young athletes to access the sport; c) Keep gender balance on all level of competitions; d) Provide a pathway to grow from youth athlete to elite athletes competing at the Olympic Games. 2. GENERAL: A thorough review of the Competition System is required due to: a) the growing number of ITU events in Europe; b) the increased number of participants in all categories; c) the growing demands of Paratriathlon being integrated in the sport; d) the increased number of private international event organising companies wanting to align with our system. 3. ETU TRIATHLON EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIPS: is the main event of ETU. The event package consist of the following races: elite Olympic Distance Triathlon, the junior Sprint Triathlon event, the Age Group OD and sprint Triathlon, the elite and junior mixed relay, an opening ceremony and the organisation of the ETU Annual General Assembly. ETU is asking to pay an event fee and prize money for both the elite individual event as the elite mixed relay. Having the event live broadcasting is recommended but not mandatory. This means that the LOC has to invest a substantial amount into this organisation.

  • Statistics Investigation
    Statistics Investigation Planning Introduction I will investigate performance in the Olympic triathlon event using data gathered from the Olympic results website. The first Olympic triathlon was held at the Summer 2000 Olympics so data should be available for three Olympics (2000, 2004 and 2008). Men and women compete in separate events. I will use a census of the individual years and genders because in Autograph I can easily manipulate large data sets (there are typically 50 competitors in each event). Autograph will enable me to compare statistics for each data set, using box and whisker diagrams showing extreme values, quartiles and the inter-quartile range. I will also create scatter graphs of one data parameter against another so that I can see if there is any obvious relationship between them. Autograph can also easily fit trend lines (to enable predictions to be made) and calculate the Spearman’s ranking coefficient. A strong correlation could indicate, for instance, that the results in one sport were very likely to influence the overall results whilst a weak correlation would indicate that an athlete could do well or badly in that sport and still be successful overall. I am hoping to find what kind of athlete does best in a triathlon: must they be very good in all three sports, or are some sports more critical than others? I will also investigate the differences between men’s and women’s times to see whether the same patterns are seen in both and whether conclusions from the men’s race are equally valid for the women’s competition.

    Chasing Despite deeper pro fi elds and constant advancements in bike 2:40 and run technol ogy, the best Ironman athletes in the world are still chasing after the elusive run record on the Big Island—a record that has stood for 23 years (and counting).

  • 1992 Con Mucho Bustos
    PHOTO BY DAVE EPPERSON It’s funny how things turn out. Throughout the 1980’s, to win the Ironman World Championship, you had to dethrone the Lord of the Lava, the one and only Dave Scott. After Mark Allen finally defeated his long-time rival in 1989 in the classic IronWar battle, he came back to win five more titles, but each time the person who finished in second place was different. In 1990 it was two-time Ironman World Champion Scott Tinley, in 1991 it was Aussie Greg Welch, in 1992 it was Cristian Bustos from Chile, in 1993 it was Pauli Kiuru of Finland and in 1995, in Allen’s last ever race, it was Germany’s Thomas Hellriegel. This feature, The Grip 6, showcases the articles I wrote after each of those races. I hope you enjoy this trip back in time! IRONWAR / 1989 THE EQUALIZER / 1990 CHECKMATE / 1991 CON MUCHO BUSTOS / 1992 THE KILLING FIELDS / 1993 MISSION IMPOSSIBLE / 1995 COPYRIGHT 2021 BOB BABBITT / CON MUCHO BUSTOS BY BOB BABBITT BEFORE THE 1992 GATORADE IRONMAN, DEFEND- resolved that fear.” Allen paused momentarily, thinking ING CHAMPION MARK ALLEN PLAYED OUT EVERY back. “It was interesting.
