I have nothing to do with triathlon, just curious what’s the feature request here and what would be the benefit?
Do you want a new category or a new sports type?
Is it possible to create one fit file with three different sport types in it ( with a Garmin watch ?), so that this activity would match the planned race?

No offence, just curious, maybe somewhen I learn to swim, so maybe I need this in the future too :joy:

The problem is when scheduling and having this:

And all three races show up in the “upcoming activities” email that goes out.

To keep this thread on topic, as the OP, this is what I’m asking for: ‘Triathlon’ as a ‘Type’ in the drop down options. Here:

Thanks to those that have supported by bumping :slight_smile:

I’m thinking that there’s a lot more than just putting this option there which is why it’s not implemented (yet)

Like what?

Dunno. Not the developer.
I could think of multiple things tho.

I Saw this option today (looking for something else)

– Group Multisport

does it group it? can this do what you’re looking for?

That groups them after the event. Which is great, but doesn’t help prior.

I want this feature too. But I kind of understand why it isn’t there. Not sure if that name is ok to mention, but Strava also does not handle this. Each single type needs its own displays/analysis of the data collected, but for multisports you have to come up with multiple differing types of data and how to deal with them. Treating them single is much easier. Not just because it looks stupid, having 3 A races in one day ;-). Still hoping…

Also hoping…for my purposes I only need the drop-down menu to include “Triathlon” or “Multisport”…I’ll deal with the separate race segments once finished, as it appears every other platform handles them that way so it must be really difficult to code. For now I’m just using Bike.
