Details of Olympics Modern Pentathlon and the Ticket Luck value
Olympics Modern Pentathlon
The Pentathlon in the ancient Olympic Games included the sports like discus throw, javelin, long jump, stadium-length race, and wrestling.
The Olympics revival urged Baron Pierre de Coubertin for a Modern Pentathlon in the 1912 thus he included Swimming, Fencing, Shooting, Running and Riding. At the Olympics all five events had to take place on one day. The modern pentathlon simulates the experience of a 19th century cavalry soldier behind enemy lines: he must ride an unfamiliar horse, fight with pistol and sword, swim, and run.
Competitors earn points for their performances in each of the five disciplines: pistol shooting, epee fencing, swimming, riding (equestrian show jumping) and cross-country running. The points scored in the first four events determine the starting order for the final event, turning the cross-country running into a handicap event. The leading competitor sets off first and the intervals between that competitor and the follower is determined by the points difference. Because of this handicapping system, the first three competitors to cross the line at the end of the run fill the gold, silver and bronze medal positions.
Modern pentathlon is a true representation of the Olympic movement. The 5 Olympic rings reflect modern pentathlon's 5 events and participation from all 5 continents.
The modern pentathlon at the 2004 took place at the Olympic Modern Pentathlon Centre at the Goudi Olympic Complex. The five segments of the event were sport shooting, fencing, swimming, equestrianism, and cross-country running. They held in the order, with each segment awarding points to competitors based on their performance. The points were summed to give a final ranking; in addition, the running segment at the end of the day used a staggered start designed so the order of runners finishing remains the same as their ranking by total points.
The modern pentathlon at the 1976, 1980 and 1984 Summer Olympics was represented by two events (both for men): Individual competition and Team competition. As usual in Olympic modern pentathlon, one competition was held and each competitor's score was included to the Individual competition event results table and was also added to his teammates' scores to be included to the Team competition event results table.
