Triathlon as a race type

Limiting the scope to simply a race type should not conflict with anything that I can think of and not too hard to implement.

A good nice-to-have for scheduling purposes.

We have heard you :slight_smile: Its on our todo-list now, but the task is surprisingly big so it might take a while to implement it.

There Is TRIATHLON OR DUATHLON In RACE calendar??

No need for the use of capitals. A little research will give you the answer. And so do I: Yes.

Looks like multisport races are supported in the shared events page, but not yet in the individual calendar. When I add a triathlon to my calendar, it shows up only as an open-water swim race. I assume the rest of this functionality is coming later.

Also very interested in a triathlon race type.

Can someone step through how to ‘hack’ a triathlon race type in, especially for the purposes of the automated plan builder?

A post further up suggests I can (/should) add three A races all on one day?

That’s one of the ways that I have done it. But as I mention in my comment above, that can cause a huge list of events if you have the weekly emails turned on.

The other option is creating 3 workouts, but then combining the loads that you get from them into a single race, and removing the workouts. I use the ‘Transition’ activity type for this for myself.

The advantage of using 3 separate planned races is that they will match up with the race activities once completed.

Both have their downsides, and I’m looking forward to the solution the platform team is working on.

Yessss TRIATHLON!!!

I have exactly this issue - I even went to the trouble of creating GPX course files for the shared triathlon event but then cannot add it to my calendar as a triathlon?
